Knowledge of phylogenetic relatedness and cytogenetic characteristics can facilitate breeding programs interspecific hybridization in ornamentals. In this study genetic relationships, genome sizes chromosome numbers were determined a collection 82 lavender genotypes, including 15 hybrids. Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) marker analysis revealed 5 clusters, corresponding to the sec...

The cultivated apple (Malus domestica) is one of the most important fruit crops cultivated in different regions of the world including Iran. For production and breeding of high quality apple, the knowledge of genetic diversity of the cultivated apples  is  necessary. Therefore we studied genetic diversity of 25 genotypes by using ISSR molecular markers. In present study, ten ISSR primers produc...

Narrow genetic variability may lead to genetic vulnerability of field crops against biotic and abiotic stresses which can cause yield reduction. In this study a set of 37 wheat microsatellite markers linked with identified QTLs for salinity tolerance were used for the assessment of genetic diversity for salinity in 30 promising lines of hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). A total of 4...

Nine commercial varieties of pineapples in Malaysia (Josapine, Maspine, MD2, Sarawak, Gandul, N36, Moris, Crystal Honey and Yankee) were collected from various places Peninsular analysed for cultivar identifications using nine simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. A total 27 alleles have been observed which ranged 2 to 5 with an average 3 per locus. The polymorphic information content (PIC) val...

There has been increasing attention toward the influence of biofertilizers on composition microbial communities associated with crop plants. We investigated impact Azospirillum sp. B510, a bacterial strain nitrogen-fixing ability, structure and fungal within rice plant rhizospheres by amplicon sequencing at two sampling stages (the vegetative harvest rice). Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The anterior communicating artery (AcoA) and posterior communicating arteries (PcoA) of the circle of Willis provide the main route for collateral blood flow in cases of carotid artery obstruction. Transcranial color-coded duplex ultrasonography (TCCD) allows real-time measurement of the collateral function of the AcoA and PcoA. The primary objective of this study was to ...

INTRODUCTION The forming of the blood vessels network configuration at the base of the brain and interconnecting of blood vessels during the embryogenesis is directly related to the phylogenetic development of the brain and brain structures. A blood vessel configuration at the brain base, in the form of a ring or a hexagon, stands in direct relation to the perfusion needs of certain parts of th...

Abstract Small and isolated populations face several intrinsic risks, such as genetic drift, inbreeding depression reduced gene flow, patterns of diversity differentiation have become an important focus conservation genetics research. The golden snub-nosed monkey Rhinopithecus roxellana, endangered species endemic to China, has experienced rapid reduction in population size severe fragmentation...

Study of genetic relationships is a prerequisite for plant breeding activities as well as for conservation of genetic resources. In the present study, genetic diversity among and within 15 Iranian native Ajowan(Carum copticum L.) populations were determined using inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers. Twelve selected primers produced 153 discernible bands, with 93 (60.78%) being ...
