In this study, 321 winter and spring wheat genotypes were analysed for twelve nutritionally important minerals (B, Cu, Fe, Se, Mg, Zn, Ca, Mn, Mo, P, S and K). Some of the genotypes used were from multiple locations and years, resulting in a total number of 493 samples. Investigated genotypes were divided into six genotype groups i.e., selections, old landraces, primitive wheat, spelt, old cult...

One hundred and forty-six highly polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to assess the genetic diversity and population structure of 196 peanut (Arachis Hypogaea L.) cultivars which had been extensively planted in different regions in China. These SSR markers amplified 440 polymorphic bands with an average of 2.99, and the average gene diversity index was 0.11. Eighty-six rar...

in order to investigate the effects of weeds interference on yield and yield components of different genotypes of common bean, an experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research station of tabriz university, in 2011. the main plots were eight genotypes of different types of common bean including red bean, (cv. gho...

apricot ( armeniaca vulgaris l.) is a popular and an economically profitable fruit of the temperate zone. various apricot genotypes grow in different areas in iran. the genetic diversity of 30 cultivars and genotypes of iranian apricot and as well, of two foreign cultivars (as control) was studied through morphological attributes and rapd markers. in a first experiment, 21 quantitative and qual...

The objectives of this work were to evaluate in vitro response of Iranian alfalfa cultivars and select high regenerative genotypes. Somatic embryogenesis response of leaf and petiole explants from five alfalfa cultivars and landraces was studied using six regeneration protocols. Cultivars and landraces exhibited protocol, and explant-specific response and somatic embryo formation occurred only ...

olive cultivars with specific characteristics have been developed thanks to iran’s particular climatic conditionsand long-term olive cultivation. the genetic variation and relationships among 40 olive cultivars, as well as 17 unknown genotypes from the national olive collection orchard at tarom research station, zanjan, iran, were evaluated using ssr markers. using 10 microsatellite primer pair...

Almond (Prunus dulcis L.) is one of the most important nut crops in Iran. Most almond cultivars and genotypes are self-incompatible. However, research on S-alleles indicates that it is very efficient in cultivar selection. Selfincompatibility in almond is gametophytic and controlled by a single S-locus with multiple codominant alleles. In this study, compatibility relationships among cultivars,...

in order to study the genetic diversity among some male pistachio genotypes,16 male pistachio genotypes and 8 female pistachio cultivars were selected from iranian pistachio research institute (ipri). 12 rapd primers were used which totally produced 65 bands that among them 48 bands were polymorphic and 17 bands were monomorphic. cluster analysis based on similarity matrix and jaccard similarit...
