genetic drift of germplasm in cultivated wheat is good motivation for studying genetic diversity in its wild relatives. in this study, r-rap, a new retrotransposon-based marker, was applied to assess the structure and genetic diversity of 30 accessions of aegilops sp. originating from different geographical regions of iran. the 15 r-rap primer combinations revealed a total of 338 bands ranging ...

genetic diversity is one of the three levels of biodiversity. the aim of present study was to compare levels of genetic polymorphism between wild bream populations using seven microsatellite loci. genetic diversity was investigated by studying samples collected from two regions, the coast of chamkhale and bandaranzali of gilan province. a total of seven microsatellite loci (mfw7, mfw26, mcs1eh,...

pistacia atlantica subsp. mutica is one of the most valuable forest tree species in iran that has been severely exploited for a long time. therefore, understanding the genetic diversity of different populations can be an important step towards the development and restoration of the habitat of this invaluable tree species. in this study, in order to study the genetic diversity, 10 populations in...

The genetic diversity of a large number of pistachio genotypes grown in Iran is not exactly known. Most of the studies on genetic diversity of Iranian pistachio varieties are based on morphological characteristics or isozyme markers. In the present study, the genetic diversity of selected pistachio cultivars along with some wild species were evaluated by Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (...

many researchers consider the use of different probes for hybridization assays as suitable for studying the genetic diversity of nitrogen fixing bacteria. in this study for asessing genetic diversity among bradyrhizobium japonicum isolates, two different probes (suca and topa) chosen from the chromosomal genome of bradyrhizobium strain usda 110 were designed, evaluated by dnaman software and im...

comparative assessment of genetic diversity of 122 durum wheat genotypes (triticum turgidum l. var. durum) was performed using 73 ssap polymorphic fragments, 123 aflp polymorphic loci and 104 ssr alleles. ssap and aflp data showed a clear demarcation between the cultivars and landraces and ssr data classified cultivars and landraces according to their origin. furthermore, the estimated genetic ...

Fenugreek is one of the important edible and medicinal vegetables that have a long history of cultivation and consumption. Characterize the extent of the genetic diversity among landraces will provide a good context for future breeding programs and genetic resource preservation. Genetic diversity and population structure of 88 individuals of eight landraces of Iranian fenugreek evaluated based ...
