Abstract:
... Apple mildew, caused by the fungus Podosphaera leucotricha, is an ongoing problem for apple growers in most world production regions. To manage apple foliar mildew with less fungicide, use of mildew-resistant cultivars is an ideal option. The mildew resistance locus of crabapple ‘White Angel’ was previously named Pl-w and genetically mapped, with the closest DNA markers at least 4.6 cM away on one ...

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) has elevated commercial value due to its health appeal, desirable characteristics and quantitatively limited production, and thus it has become an object of intentional adulteration. As EVOOs on the market might consist of a blend of olive varieties or sometimes even of a mixture of oils from different botanical species, an array of DNA-fingerprinting methods have bee ...

Abstract:
... Mercurialis perennis is a dioecious clonal woodland herb. Its male-biased shoot sex ratio may result from differential selection (with skewed genet sex ratio) and/or differential performance (fairly even genet sex ratio but skewed shoot sex ratio since male clones grow more vigorously or have a higher flowering propensity). To test both scenarios, a total of 1024 shoots were mapped and excavated i ...

Abstract:
... Genetic diversity studies of plants depend upon the quality and quantity of isolated DNA sample. For many lower groups of plants, apart from usual steps involved for DNA isolation, several additional steps are invariably required specific to the particular plant group. In bryophytes, nucleic acid isolation has always been a difficult task. The Bryophytes possess a substantial quantity of polypheno ...

... Diverse molecular markers have been used to analyze the genetic diversity of plant pathogens. Compared with traditional fingerprinting methods, multiple loci variable number of tandem repeat analyses (MLVAs) have gained importance recently due to their reproducibility, high discriminatory power, ease of performance, low cost, and throughput potential. These characteristics are desirable for contin ...

Abstract:
... Chinese hawthorn (Crataegus pinnatifida) is an important ornamental and economic horticultural plant. However, the lack of molecular markers has limited the development and utilization of hawthorn germplasm resources. Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) derived from expressed sequence tags (ESTs) allow precise and effective cultivar characterization and are routinely used for genetic diversity analysis ...

Microsatellites play an important role when investigating population and ecological genetics, although high effort in development and genotyping constitute a technical constraint and remains a major bottleneck. Here we use a microsatellite genotyping approach utilizing sequences of amplicons for allele calling (SSR-GBS) based on Illumina that requires less effort and time. The approach consist of ...

Abstract:
... The need for improved aquaculture productivity has led to widespread pressure to introduce the Genetically Improved Farmed Tilapia (GIFT) strains of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) into Africa. However, the physical and regulatory infrastructures for preventing the escape of farmed stocks into wild populations and ecosystems are generally lacking. This study characterized the genetic backgrou ...
