The present investigation on Hippophae rhamnoides was carried out to assess its genetic variability in Himachal Pradesh, India, by employing morphological and RAPD markers. Different areas of Himachal Pradesh were surveyed and eight sites were finally selected Twenty four genotypes were selected for further studies, i.e., three genotypes from each site. On the basis of morphological studies, the genotypes of the Ropa site （Kinnaur） were considered elite genotypes. To assess the variability at the molecular level, RAPD patterns were studied by random primers. The total number of bands amplified was 607, out of which 487 bands were identified as polymorphic, depicting 80.23 per cent variability. Six unique bands were produced from three primers （OPA- 05, OPA-10 and OPD-08） specific for five genotypes, including three genotypes of the Ropa site, Kinnaur District.展开更多

The genetic variability analysis of 19 alfalfa populations collected from three sites in South Tunisia (Gabes, Kebili, Tozeur) and 1 from North West China were carried out using Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers. Five RAPD primers amplified 44 bands of which 22 were polymorphic;and five ISSR primers amplified 51 bands of which 33 were polymorphic. The percentage of polymorphic bands detected by RAPD and ISSR was 50% and 64.7%, respectively. The resolving power (Rp) varied between 0.6 and 4.1 with an average of 2.02 for RAPD marker and between 0.7 and 6.5 with an average of 2.28 for ISSR marker. However the Average Informativeness band (AvIb) was ranged from 0.2 to 0.9 with an average of 0.5 in RAPD marker and from 0.29 to 0.7 with an average of 0.624 in ISSR marker. The RAPD marker revealed less within population genetic diversity than ISSR marker. Although Cluster (UPGMA) and Correspondence Factorial Analyses (CFA) indicate that populations’ clustering made independently both from the geographical origin.展开更多

Two random primers were selected for the RAPD assay PG01–5’ CAGGTGTTGC 3’ and PG02–5’ CTGGACAGAC 3’ (Progen Technologies). The characterization of Aspergillus terreus species have been mostly applied on the basis of morphology, phenotype and physiology. DNA Polymorphisms are based on differences in DNA sequences and have advantages over protein polymorphisms. But morphological characterization besides molecular tools will remain a basic and powerful key in the identification of Aspergillus terreus species. The objective of the present study was to isolate the fungal contaminants from dried grapes and compare the genomic profile of the Aspergillus terreus speices isolated from the dried grapes, through RAPD analysis. In the present study with primer PG 01 four different discriminations was there among the A. terreus isolates. There was a homology of genotype between the isolates 1 & 3. And with primer PG 02 four different discriminations were there and there was a homology between 1 & 3. The predominant type was type I in primer I & II. The other isolates belonged to 2, 3 and 4. No similarity was detected for isolates 3, 4 and 5 indicating great genomic diversity of A. terreus.展开更多

The genetic variability among individuals of Artemisia capillaris from state of Terengganu, Malaysia was examined by using the random amplified polymorphic DNA （RAPD） technique to assess the polymorphism at the species level, The samples from differences regional in Terengganu State. The genomic DNA was extracted from the samples leaves using Sarkosyl method. The results produced by the machine showed clear RAPD banding pattern. Fifty-seven oligonucleotide primers were screened and five primers were selected （OPA 04, OPA 09, OPA 16, OPA 17 and OPA 18） to amplify DNA from five samples of Artemisia capillaris from State of Terengganu, Malaysia. A total of 135 RAPD fragments （RAPDs） with all polymorphic fragments （100%） with size ranging from 250--3000 bp were scored from the population. Genetic distance for samples ranges from 0.0000 to 0.320000. For similarity index samples ranges from 0.0000 to 0.7547.展开更多

The bio-chemical/genetic results are in agreement with those obtained by standard approaches. The bed under study was ranked as a disturbed one, due to its low density, and high heterogeneity in leaf biometry, LAI values, "A" coefficient and primary production. This low quality ranking is confirmed by both mean phenol content in plants, quite high and scattered, and by the low genetic variability in the meadow, with a very high similarity of specimen at a local scale. Hence, these two putative approaches clearly identify the endangered conservation status of the meadow. They link plant biodiversity and ecophysiology to ecosystem 'health'. Furthermore, they are repeatable and standardizable and could be usefully introduced in meadows monitoring to check environmental quality.展开更多
