abstract background: autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (adpkd) is an inherited disorder with genetic heterogeneity. up to three loci are involved in this disease, pkdi on chromosome 16p13.3, pkd2 on 4q21, and a third locus of unknown location. methods: here we report the first molecular genetic study of adpkd and the existence oflocus heterogeneity for adpkd in the iranian population...

the effectiveness of irap, remap, ssr, and issr markers were investigated to assess genetic diversity among and within eight medicago sativa l. populations. a total of 101, 119, 117 loci and 31 alleles were amplified using 10 irap, 14 remap, 16 issr and eight ssr primers, respectively. irap markers generated the maximum proportion of polymorphic loci per primer (pplp) while the maximum value of...

in sturgeon aquaculture, where the main purpose is caviar production, a reliable method is needed to separate fish according to gender. currently, due to the lack of external sexual dimorphism, the fish are sexed by an invasive surgical examination of the gonads. development of a non-invasive procedure for sexing fish based on genetic markers is of special interest. in the present study we empl...

association analysis is a useful method for evaluation of significant association between molecular marker and phenotype of trait. this study was performed to evaluate association between traits related with powdery mildew resistance and molecular markers. this investigation was performed using 77 barley genotypes and aflp markers. in phenotypic evaluation, reaction of seedlings to powdery mild...

in this study, srap molecular maker approach was performed to investigate genetic diversity in the salvia genus. a total of 205 dna bands were produced from pcr amplification of 11 salvia species and populations using 25 selective primer combinations, of which 204 polymorphic genetic loci accounted. the total number of amplified fragments ranged from 3 to 15. the genetic similarities of 11 coll...

pod length is one of the effective components on canola yield selection on the basis of which can increase not only the seed yield but also the oil yield. molecular markers asso-ciated with long pod loci were identified in a doubled haploid population derived from a cross between the canola lines ‘quantum’ (long pod) ‘china a’ (short pod) using rapd and bulked segregant analysis. a molecular ma...

This paper provides two puzzles for a theory of aspect. The first concerns the quirky behavior of the Russian imperfective with regard to its culmination properties: it seems to function like the perfect aspect in certain cases, but like the progressive in others. The other puzzle concerns how the Russian imperfective constrains the temporal location of a described event: it relates distinct ev...

robust information of genetic diversity among bt cotton genotypes is still lacking and availability of several marker systems has prompted us to compare their utility for the detection of genetic diversity. here, we report the comparative efficiency of morphological and molecular markers (est-ssrs and issrs) in determining the genetic diversity among 30 pakistani bt cotton genotypes. three diff...

a study was conducted to identify ssr markers linked to leaf rust resistance genes lr24 and lr28 and to be used for marker-assisted selection (mas) to transfer both genes to a widely cultivated wheat variety mp 3299 under rainfed condition. f2 individuals of the cross mp 3299×nil pbw 343 were used for generating genotypic data employing closely linked scar markers s73719 and s421570 to lr24 and...
