Abstract Drought and desertification are the major environmental constraints facing Sahelian agro-ecosystems for decades. Assessing genetic diversity of native tree species is critical to assist ecosystems restoration efforts. Here we describe structure seven Balanites aegyptiaca L . natural populations distributed across Sahelian-Saharan zone Mauritania using 16 polymorphic ISSR primers. These generated 505 bands. Polymorphism information content (PIC) varied from (0.13–0.29) with an...

Understanding the adaptive mechanism of trees to climate change and effective management genetic resources necessitate a comprehensive knowledge relationship between environmental factors their power. This study focuses on endangered Moroccan endemic tree, Argania spinosa L., known for its remarkable power in Mediterranean heavily impacted by change. Through genomic scans along latitudinal gradient, we aimed identify regions associated with convergent or divergent selection searching genome...

Argania spinosa L. (Sapotaceae family), endemic to Morocco, is a multipurpose tree with an important ecological and socio-economical interest.Nevertheless, the sustainability of agro-forestry system now threatened by overgrazing over-exploitation leading alarming decline in number trees.In present study, inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers were used evaluate genetic variation assess diversity distribution within among 17 argan populations growing naturally under semi-arid arid...

The argan tree (Argania spinosa L. Skeels, Sapotaceae) is a genetic resource endemic in Morocco.Genetic diversity within and among 13 populations (130 genotypes) of was studied using AFLP markers.Having checked twenty combinations labeled primers for regular genomes (500-6000 Mb) (EcoRI+3/ MseI+3 selective bases) small genome (50-500 (EcoRI+2/MseI+3 bases), we selected four specific able to produce relatively high polymorphism low error rate (0.12 %).A total 477 unambiguous peaks were...

The Argania is an endemic genetic resource in Morocco holding important ecological and socio-economical benefit. However, overgrazing overharvesting lead to a serious downturn the number of trees. To characterize diversity within among 24 populations, represented by 240 argan trees, four combinations SRAP primers eight REMAP were used. A total 338 146 markers amplified with polymorphism 100%. average information content value was 0.20 0.17 for markers, respectively. analysis molecular...
