This article refers to viewing the role of molecular markers during analyzing genome plants and their importance in plant biotechnology. In recent years, we observed techniques programs for improving breeding preserving genetic resources has been observed, biochemical indicators which represent basic material through determining diversity between genotypes it is never affected by external surro...

BACKGROUND In 2009, 3 genome-wide association studies implicated IL28B single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as the strongest genetic pretreatment predictor of sustained virological response (SVR) in hepatitis C infection. Recently, the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) and the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) included IL28B testing in their gui...

We have developed a simple, labor-saving, inexpensive, and rapid single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping method that works directly on whole human blood. This single-tube genotyping method was used to successfully and reliably genotype ADH1B and ALDH2 polymorphisms without DNA isolation using a 1.2-mm disc of dried blood and the KOD FX PCR enzyme kit. SNP genotyping was performed by a p...

The genetic polymorphism of some genes related to meat production in three Egyptian sheep breeds (Barki, Rahmani and Osseimi) was studied. The candidate genes were: Calpastatin, Myostatin, Diacylglycerol-acyltransferase1, Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 and Booroola fecundity gene. The technique applied was the restriction fragment length polymorphism for the polymerase chain react...

In this study, we evaluated three PCR-based methods for the molecular typing of nonpathogenic Fusarium oxysporum isolates: random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP). The analyses were performed using 64 isolates of F. oxysporum collected from cotton-producing areas in E...

This study aimed to detect the genetic association of HLA-G gene polymorphism with LSCC. It was a comparative estimating prevalence both 14-bp insertion versus deletion and HLA-G*01:05 N null allele using PCR-RFLP. highly recorded in patients LSCC (63.0%) whereas (37.0%) lower. The −14/-14 −14/+14 genotypes were significantly higher cases +14/+14 genotype not. found 39 (43.8%) 47 control (52.8%...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Mycobacterium avium has emerged as a major opportunistic pathogen, infecting nearly 50 per cent of HIV/AIDS patients in the western world. There is no report from India regarding the typing profile of M. avium, a potential pathogen, the present study was undertaken to assess the genotypic diversity of Indian M. avium isolates of human origin. METHODS A total of 65 bioch...

The polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the rRNA gene, using the enzyme DdeI were used for the molecular identification of ten species and one subspecies of Brazilian Biomphalaria. Emphasis is given to the analysis of B. oligoza, B. schrammi and B. amazonica. The RFLP profiles obtained using this enzyme...

Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was used to examine the extent of mtDNA polymorphism among six strains of rats (Rattus norvegicus)--Wistar, Wistar Munich, Brown Norway, Wistar Kyoto, SHR and SHR-SP. A survey of 26 restriction enzymes has revealed a low level of genetic divergence among strains. The sites of cleavage by EcoRI, NcoI and XmnI were shown to be polymorphic. The use o...

OBJECTIVES To study if the reported association of a BamH I 2kb RFLP of the T cell receptor V beta 8 gene with DR4+ rheumatoid arthritis patients is found in non-American white populations. METHODS The frequency of this RFLP in two different populations was analysed. Eighty one northern Italians were studied for HLA-DR genotypes and V beta 8 polymorphism, and 29 DR4+ British white patients we...
