The availability of dense single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes for dairy cattle has created exciting research opportunities and revolutionized practical breeding programs. Broader application of this technology will lead to situations in which genotypes from different low-, medium-, or high-density platforms must be combined. In this case, missing SNP genotypes can be imputed using fa...

salinity is a major environmental problem in arid and semi-arid areas. chickpea (cicer arietinum l.), like other legumes is sensitive to salinity. therefore, selection of genotypes to grow on saline areas is important. eleven chickpea genotypes (as sub plots) were grown in the greenhouse conditions on a medium containing different nacl concentrations (8 and 12 dsm-1) and control (hoagland solut...

in order to study, the effects of drought stress on germination and seedling growth of chickpea genotypes, experiments were carried out on two susceptible genotypes (mcc68, mcc448) and two resistant genotypes (mcc392, mcc877). in the first experiment the seeds were sown under different levels of drought stress (0,-0.4,-0.8,-1.2mpa) in 25◦c at the growth chamber with 4 replication. the results s...

The Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.) is one of the most valuable resources in Iran because of its multi benefits. The present study was conducted in Meshkin-Shahr in Ardabil province to investigate the important quantitative and qualitative characteristics of 31 walnut genotypes. Classification of genotypes was analyzed using the cluster method. The results showed that among selected walnut ge...

mahaleb (prunus mahalab l.) is used as a rootstock for cherries in iran and many other countries. in this research, rapd markers were used to determine the genetic diversity among eight genotypes of mahaleb evaluated in two separate research grardens in karaj, iran. these genotypes are used as mother plants for seed production. totally 40 random primers were examined for pcr reactions on the te...
