Fusarium Head Blight is an important wheat disease in the Argentine Pampas region, being Fusarium graminearum the predominant pathogen. DNA polymorphism of the isolates was analyzed by IGS-RFLP and ISSR. IGS-RFLP and ISSR profiling were carried out using six endonucleases and eight primers, respectively. IGS-RFLP yielded 41 bands, 30 of which were polymorphic while ISSR produced 87 bands with 4...

abstract as hybrid spawn is propagated asexually in edible mushrooms, producers may propagate it without the permission of the owner. for the protection of the owner right, there is a great need for a molecular certificate for each commercial line. the high-resolution genotyping method of amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) analysis was used to prepare molecular certifications and fin...

Origanum syriacum L. (Lamiaceae) is a perennial species with an important role in medicinal and pharmaceutical applications. However, the attention regarding its genetic diversity negligible worldwide. Touch-up direct amplification of minisatellite-region DNA (TU-DAMD) marker has been employed to investigate natural populations, where 37 wild O. genotypes were collected from coastal, central so...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Phaffia rhodozyma is a red yeast which produces astaxanthin as the major carotenoid pigment. Astaxanthin is thought to reduce the incidence of cancer and degenerative diseases in man. It also enhances the immune response and acts as a free-radical quencher, a precursor of vitamin A, or a pigment involved in the visual attraction of animals as mating partners. The impac...

Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) is an economically important leafy vegetable crop in many countries. This is the first case study of using SRAP markers to analyze genetic diversity of Iranian spinach accessions. Eight SRAP primer combinations generated 88 scorable bands ranging from 50 to 1000 bp, among which 73 were polymorphic, with an average of 82.9 polymorphic bands per primer combination a...

Urtica dioica is an important medicinal plant which is widely distributed in Mazandaran province (North of Iran). In this study for the first time Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) and Inter-simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers were used for detection of genetic polymorphism in Mazandaran nettle. Ten AFLP primer combinations and seventeen ISSR markers were utilized. AFLP produced 830...

Genetic variation and inheritance of randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers in female grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) and male bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) and their F1 offspring hybrid have been studied. For this purpose, genomic DNA was extracted from muscle tissue according to phenol-chloroform method, and six decamer primers were used for amplifying polymorphic ...

in the present study, randomly amplified polymorphic dna (rapd) markers were used to analyze the genetic diversity in 20 varieties of philodendron. the polymerase chain reaction was performed with 60 rapd primers, out of which 21 primers showed clear amplification as well as more polymorphism. in total, 354 scorable rapd loci with 348 polymorphic bands (98%) were observed. percentages of polymo...
