The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique was applied to identify palm varieties. Fluorescence labelled primers were used in selective amplifications and the amplified fragments were detected on capillary gel electrophoresis using an automated DNA sequencer with the analysis fragment option. This is a rapid and efficient technique for detecting a large number of DNA markers on...

iran is a part of the secondary centre of origin of melons, and therefore, there is a wealth of genetic variation of these species in this country. the amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) marker was applied to investigate the genetic variations among five major iranian melon cultigens (cucumis melo) and ‘ananasi’ as a general well-known cultivar. ten primer pairs were used on 90 indiv...

little information is available regarding genetic variation in wild wheat relatives from iran. in this study, genetic diversity of 36 populations of wild einkorn wheat, triticum boeoticum, was studied using amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) primer combinations. seventeen aflp primer combinations led to amplify 979 scorable fragments ranging from 50 to 500 bp and of these, 429 (44%) ...

A method for high-resolution genomic fingerprinting of the enteric pathogens Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli, based on the determination of amplified fragment length polymorphism, is described. The potential of this method for molecular epidemiological studies of these species is evaluated with 50 type, reference, and well-characterised field strains. Amplified fragment length polym...

Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) was used to establish the genetic relationships among 20 species from seven of the nine sections of genus Arachis. The level of polymorphism among nine accessions of the cultivated peanut, A. hypogaea L., was also evaluated. Three combinations of primers were used to amplify the AFLPs. The fragments were separated in 6% denaturing acrylamide gels. A...

Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam., commonly called jackfruit, is a medium-sized evergreen tree that bears high yields of the largest known edible fruit. Yet, it has been little explored commercially due to wide variation in fruit quality. The genetic diversity and genetic relatedness of 50 jackfruit accessions were studied using amplified fragment length polymorphism markers. Of 16 primer pairs eva...

Drought is one of the most frequent abiotic stresses limiting the productivity and geographical distribution of sugarcane culture. The use of drought-tolerant genotypes is one approach for overcoming the effects of water stress. We conducted a comparative study to identify gene expression profiles under water stress in tolerant sugarcane roots. Two different cultivars, 1 drought tolerant (RB867...

Micro-RNAs are a large group of non-coding RNAs of 18-25 nucleotides in length. Polymorphisms in the human pre-mir-RNAs could change the efficiency of target cell and can also play a role in cell cycle regulation and cancer. The aim of this study is to investigate the association of rs11614913 T/C polymorphism with gastric cancer risk in Ardabil Province. In a case-control study, this polymorph...

Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis was conducted on the wabisuke camellia and its relative species. Genetic identified among ‘Uraku’ camellia, offspring ‘Tosa-uraku’ Camellia japonica, whereas two accessions of old showed monomorphism in all fragments. The results suggested that trees are asexually-propagated clonal strains. genetic distance between cultivars Chinese camelli...
