[Method] The DNA fin-gerprints of a bitter gourd cuItivar Xiuyu 1 and its parents were analyzed using IS-SR marker with 91 primers. [Result] Two primers ISSR-845 and ISSR-891 which ampIified two DNA bands of 510 and 300 bp respectiveIy from F1 generation and its parents were screened out from 91 primers. ISSR-845 couId distinguish the male parent from F1 hybrid and the female parent, whiIe ISSR-891 couId distinguish the female parent inbred Iine from Xiuyu 1. Seed purity test with the specific markers gave the same resuIt with fiIed trials based on morphoIogical identification. [Conclu-sion] ISSR marker is an accurate, simpIe and effective method for seed purity test bitter gourd hybrid, and thus can be used in production practices.展开更多

The results indicated that there was no difference among the ITS sequences of 11 isolates from China. The ITS sequence of isolates from China was more homogeneous with that of isolates from Britain compared with France, Germany, and Canada. Intersimple sequence repeat （ISSR） markers were also used to study the genetic division of Melampsora larici-populina, and the results showed that the 11 tested isolates could be divided into Western population and Northern population. Genetic diversity index of race C2 was significantly different from that of races C4, C3, and C1, and no significant differences were observed among the other races. Pathogenicity division of races must not harmonize with their genetic division, except race C2. The ITS region is conservative, and ITS sequence is not fit for studying the differences that existed among the races. ISSR marker can be used for intraspecies population study, and Melampsora larici-populina in China can be divided into two populations.展开更多

Out of 43 primers examined, 18 primers produced distinguishable, polymorphic bands between the two parents. Linkage analysis in the mapping population showed that two markers UBC-808 and UBC-848 were closely linked with the restorer gene Rf6 of the Triticum timopheevii CMS system. The distance between the two markers and the restorer gene was 7.9 cM and 4.9 cM, respectively. Also two parents were screened with 181 pairs of SSR primers, of which, 34.3% showed polymorphisms. But no locus was found linked with the restorer gene. Compared with the SSR technique, the ISSR approach used in the experiment provided more information and proved to be a valuable method to identify alien fragments.展开更多

In particular, flowers of Eucalyptus cladocalyx provide a nectar source for the production of honey in arid ecosystems. To identify inter-simple sequence repeat （ISSR） markers that are associated with early flowering and flower abundance in the southern Atacama Desert, we used a sample of 47 trees, representing five Australian prove- nances of E. cladocalyx. A unified mixed linear model （which considered the effect of genetic structure and the kinship relationship among trees） revealed that three loci were significantly associated with early flowering, which accounted for 10-16 % of the phenotypic variation, while two loci accounted for 11-13 % in flowering intensity. Locus ISO1-500 bp was associated with both flowering traits. This result is consistent with our previous findings indicating that marker-assisted selection on early flowering should have significant and positive impact on flowering intensity. The application of marker-assisted selection to identify trees that flower early and intensively may increase honey production, a resource that generates additional income for the local farmers of the southern Atacama Desert.展开更多

The genetic diversity of C. songorica K. Koch. germplasm in five populations from Daxigou, Xinjiang, China were evaluated based on phenotypic traits and ISSR molecular markers to provide basic infor- mation on resource protection, rational utilization and genetic improvement. The F-value for the phenotypic differentiation coefficient of the 33 traits measured ranged from 0.266 to 15.128, and mean value was 13.85%. The variation among populations was found to be lower than that within population. A total of 303 loci were detected within the five populations by 12 primers. Within 298,polymorphic loci, the polymorphism was 98.35%, showing a high genetic diversity in C. songorica K. Koch. The gene diversity within population, total population genetic diversity, genetic differentiation coefficient and gene flow were 0.2779, 0.3235, 0.1408, and 3.0511, respectively. Our results showed that C. songorica K. Koch. from Xinjiang has a high level of genetic diversity at both the phenotypic and molecular levels. Significant genetic differentiation existed within population and the differentiation trend showed a regional association. And in this study, in situ and ex situ conser- vation approaches were raised for wild hawthorn protection utilization.展开更多

Drought tolerance is a very important feature considering the actual climate change scenario throughout the world. This study aimed to determine the genetic diversity between sugarcane varieties with contrasting features under drought. For this purpose, twelve ISSR primers were used to characterize nine sugarcane varieties under cultivation in different countries including selected drought resistant material from Northeast Brazil and two varieties from India as contrasting genotypes. 317 scorable bands were generated, among which 301 comprised polymorphic markers, with an average of 25 polymorphic bands per primer. In the generated dendrogram the accessions were placed in clusters, where cluster A included two varieties from India (Co331 and Co419), and B comprised plants eight Brazilian accessions and a ‘Barbado’ variety. Within this clade, drought tolerant and susceptible varieties were clearly separated. The present evaluation revealed important contrasting parental candidates regarding their drought response, very promising for future mapping approaches aiming the identification of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated to drought in sugarcane. The selected primers were used for the first time in sugarcane, representing valuable tools for future evaluations, with emphasis to diversity characterization and genetic mapping.展开更多

Genomic DNAs from 108 soybeans (</span><i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">G.</span></i> <i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">max</span></i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">) accessions from 11 different gene pools were analyzed using several ISSR and RAPD primers. The average level of polymorphic loci detected with the RAPD primers was 35%. The soybean accessions from the China, Netherlands, and Canada gene pools were the least genetically variable with 25%, 26%, and 30% of polymorphic loci, respectively. Accessions from Hungary (43%) and France (48%) showed the highest level of polymorphism based on the RAPD analysis. Overall, RAPD data revealed that the accessions from different countries are closely related with 64% genetic distance values below 0.40. The levels of polymorphic loci detected with the RAPD and ISSR marker systems were in general moderate and similar even if they target different regions of the genome. A combination of different marker systems that include RAPD/ISSR, microsatellites (SSR), and SNPs should provide the most accurate information on genetic variation of soybean (</span><i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">G.</span></i> <i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">max</span></i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">) accessions.展开更多

Intersimple sequence repeat （ISSR） markers were also used to study the genetic division of Melampsora larici-populina, and the results showed that the 11 tested isolates could be divided into Western population and Northern population. Genetic diversity index of race C2 was significantly different from that of races C4, C3, and C1, and no significant differences were observed among the other races. Pathogenicity division of races must not harmonize with their genetic division, except race C2. The ITS region is conservative, and ITS sequence is not fit for studying the differences that existed among the races.

文摘Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analysis was carried out on a F2 population of 147 plants derived from a cross between a wheat male fertility restorer line 2114 and a male sterile line ND44A. Out of 43 primers examined, 18 primers produced distinguishable, polymorphic bands between the two parents. Linkage analysis in the mapping population showed that two markers UBC-808 and UBC-848 were closely linked with the restorer gene Rf6 of the Triticum timopheevii CMS system. The distance between the two markers and the restorer gene was 7.9 cM and 4.9 cM, respectively. Also two parents were screened with 181 pairs of SSR primers, of which, 34.3% showed polymorphisms. But no locus was found linked with the restorer gene. Compared with the SSR technique, the ISSR approach used in the experiment provided more information and proved to be a valuable method to identify alien fragments.
