This study investigates the potential of object-based texture parameters extracted from 15m spatial resolution ASTER imagery for estimating tree size diversity in a Mediterranean forested landscape in Turkey. Tree size diversity based on tree basal area was determined using the Shannon index and Gini Coefficient at the sampling plot level. Image texture parameters were calculated based on the g...

iris belongs toiridaceae family and it is monocotyledon. iris is one of the important ornamental and medicinal plants. 34 iris genotypes (14 species) collected from different provinces of iran were planted at national institute of ornamental plants (niop) iran. all of the species evaluated for 15 quantitative traits and 30 qualitative traits. results showed that the highest positive correlation...

ustilago hordei (pres) lagerh is a fungus that causes covered smut of barley. this disease reduces yield and is a limiting factor in barley fields of iran. one hundred forty four isolates of u. hordei were collected from 36 regions of khuzestan province during 2009 and the genetic diversity of 100 isolates was evaluated by molecular markers. four out of 14 primers were selected on the basis of ...

Estimation of genetic diversity is an important factor in germplasm conservation and characterization. In rice breeding programs, genetic diversity information on specific regions of genome can be very useful for the application of marker assisted selection (MAS) and for gene mapping. A total of 152 rice lines were considered for breeding programs using microsatellites (SSR) technique. The tota...

abstract in this study, two wild iranian crocus species (crocus speciosus and crocus cancellathus) were examined using 16 morphological characters and 13 issr primers on 250 and 25 plant samples, respectively. the highest and lowest coefficient of variations were belonged to the thickness of the petals (71.25%) and the leaf length (15.08%), respectively. cluster analysis based on morphological ...

genetic diversity is the basis success of improving the quality and quantity of crops. recognizing of genetic diversity and genetic potential of each plant species in plant breeding is necessary. in this study genetic diversity of 30 lentil samples belonging to collection of the college of agriculture of krage were evaluated using rapd molecular markers. rapd products were scored for presence (...

in order to study genetic diversity of aegilops tauschii populations, 188 populations of national plant gene bank collection of iran were evaluated for morphological traits according to ipgri descriptors in research station of national plant gene bank. moreover, 100 out of 188 populations were evaluated in research station of seed and plant improvement institute for resistance to yellow rust, p...

We evaluated the genetic variation and population structure in Indian and non-Indian genotypes of finger millet using 87 genomic SSR primers. The 128 finger millet genotypes were collected and genomic DNA was isolated. Eighty-seven genomic SSR primers with 60-70 % GC contents were used for PCR analysis of 128 finger millet genotypes. The PCR products were separated and visualized on a 6 % polya...
