mahi sefid (cyprinidae) is an economically important fish in the south caspian sea. specimens was collected from the lamir river, sefid rud, shir rud and tajan rivers and analyzed at 38 microsatellite dna loci. eight primers out of the thirty analyzed loci were polymorphic in all sampling regions. the highest observed heterozygosity (1) was in locus ca1 in sefid rud and lowest was 0.07 in locus...

the population genetic structure of the persian sturgeon (acipenser persicus) in the sefidrud and gorganrud river watersheds was analyzed based on the characterization of microsatellite markers. one hundred fin clip samples of persian sturgeon from the two regions were collected. four microsatellite loci (ls68, spl168, spl173, and afu68) were analyzed for molecular characterization, resulting i...

the aim of this study was to access the genetic differentiation of paraschistura sp. in kheirabad and brim rivers (zohreh river system, persian gulf basin), iran. for this purpose, 60 samples including 30 male and 30 female samples from each river were collected. a total of six microsatellite loci (bbar4, bbar7, ic228, ic230, ic434 and ic720) were used and all of them showed high polymorphism (...

retrotransposons (rtns) constitute informative molecular markers for plant species because of their ability to integrate into a multitude of loci throughout the genome and thereby generate insertional polymorphisms between individuals. in the present study, rtn-based molecular markers, irap (inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism) and remap (retrotransposon-microsatellite amplified polymo...
