Development of nuclear SSR and chloroplast genome markers in diverse Liriodendron chinense germplasm based on low-coverage whole genome sequencing

Biol. Res; 53 (), 2020
BACKGROUND: Liriodendron chinense ranges widely in subtropical China and northern Vietnam; however, it inhabits several small, isolated populations and is now an endangered species due to its limited seed production. The objective of this study was to develop a set of nuclear SSR (simple sequence repeats...

Diversidad genética de materiales nativos de aguacate guatemalteco a través del marcador molecular AFLP

Cienc. tecnol. salud; 7 (2), 2020
El aguacate es un cultivo de consumo a nivel mundial, y según teorías recientes, se sugiere a la región de la Sierra Nevada, en California, como centro de origen y, a Guatemala, como uno de los principales centros de domesticación. Mediante caracterizaciones morfológicas se ha reportado una alta div...

Detección de patógenos asociados a la enfermedad punta morada en los cultivos de papa y tomate en Guatemala

Cienc. tecnol. salud; 7 (2), 2020
La punta morada es una enfermedad que afecta la producción de algunas especies de solanáceas como la papa y el tomate, causando enrollamiento en las puntas de las hojas con una marcada coloración morada, decaimiento temprano de la planta y en la papa se observa tuberización aérea. Como patógenos as...

Development and characterization of microsatellite markers in Gaultheria pumila Lf. (Ericaceae)

Biol. Res; 51 (), 2018
BACKGROUND: Polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed for Gaultheria pumila (Ericaceae) to evaluate genetic diversity and population structure within its native range in Chile. This is a very important Ericaceae endemic to Chile with a large commercial potential. Its resistance to different abiot...

Genetic analysis of Penthorum chinense Pursh by improved RAPD and ISSR in China

Background: Penthorum chinense Pursh (P. chinense) is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) plant, which has long been used for the prevention and treatment of hepatic diseases. This study aimed to genetically characterize the varieties of P. chinense from different geographic localities of Chi...

Analysis of the genetic relationships and diversity among 11 populations of Xanthoceras sorbifolia using phenotypic and microsatellite marker data

Background: Assessments of genetic diversity are essential for germplasm characterization and exploitation. Molecular markers are valuable tools for exploring genetic variation and identifying germplasm. They play key roles in a Xanthoceras sorbifolia breeding program. Results: We analyzed the genetic di...

Analysis of genetic and epigenetic variation in in vitro propagated potato somatic hybrid by AFLP and MSAP marker

Electron. j. biotechnol; 16 (6), 2013
Background: Genetic and epigenetic changes (DNA methylation) were examined in the tissue-culture propagated interspecific potato somatic hybrids between dihaploid Solanum tuberosum and S. pinnatisectum. Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and methylation-sensitive amplified polymorphism (MSAP) ...

Incidência e severidade de septoriose (septoria passiflorae sydow) em mudas de 48 genótipos de maracujazeiro azedo, sob casa de vegetação no distrito federal

Biosci. j. (Online); 23 (2), 2007
O maracujazeiro é atacado por diversos patógenos, entre eles o fungo Septoria passiflorae, causador da septoriose. Objetivando-se analisar a reação de genótipos de maracujá azedo a septoriose, foi conduzido um experimento com mudas, em casa de vegetação, na Estação Biológica da Universidade de...
