the identification of molecular markers linked to leaf curl virus (clcuv) disease resistance in cotton has the potential to improve both the efficiency and the efficacy of selection in cotton breeding programs. genetic analysis suggested that clcuv resistance is controlled by a single dominant gene. in this study, an interspecific f2 population derived from a cross of gossypium barbadense and g...

Burkholderia cepacia is a problematic pathogen that may spread among patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). One highly infectious CF strain that causes epidemics in both the United Kingdom and eastern Canada has been shown to possess both the cable pilin subunit gene (cblA) and a unique combination of insertion sequences. However, no genetic markers linking this strain type with other types epidem...

malaria is currently one of the most important causes of mortality in developing countries. high resistance to available antimalarial drugs has been reported frequently, thus it is crucial to focus on the discovery of new antimalarial drugs. artemisinin, an effective antimalarial medication, is isolated from various artemisia species. to identify the artemisia species producing high quantity of...

DNA markers application in marker-assisted breeding of cotton is handicapped due to low genetic diversity germplasm. The present study was designed identify markers, predominately simple sequence repeats (SSRs), associated with tolerance/resistance heat stress as a consequence boll shedding. To find out the total 24 genotypes and 50 SSR primers were used. Total 288 alleles produced an average 5...

This study investigated the association between both polymorphisms and metabolic marker changes of leptin gene, body weight, weight gain, carcass traits, feed intake, conversion ratio. Blood samples were collected from 60 V-line Baladi Black rabbits for DNA extraction biochemical analysis. sequencing (202-bp) revealed four non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) that characterized ...

To identify cultivars quickly and accurately, DNA fingerprinting of 10 broccoli varieties was performed by using simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker technology. Highly informative polymorphic SSR markers were screened rapeseed. Out the 93 pairs, 21 pairs selected found to have good polymorphism. Each pair generated 1 bands with an average 4.29. The polymorphism information content (PIC) 0.41 a ...

Molecular markers are effective tools used to ‘flag’ the location of a specific gene or inheritance definite trait. Markers unique DNA fragments that can be identified inside entire genome. The development molecular combined with high throughput technologies have paved way for achieving desirable traits as well induced biotic and abiotic stress tolerance in plant, which enhanced crop breeding. ...
