Abstract Background Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) are a source of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) that can be used to develop molecular markers for genetic studies. The availability ESTs Quercus robur and petraea provided unique opportunity microsatellite accelerate research aimed at studying adaptation these long-lived species their environment. As first step toward the construction SSR-based linkage map oak quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, we describe mining survey EST-SSRs as well...
Abstract A high-density genetic linkage map from a controlled cross of two oil palm ( Elaeis guineensis ) genotypes was constructed based on Single Primer Enrichment Technology (SPET) markers. 5K panel hybridization probes were used for this purpose which derived previously developed SNP primers in palm. Initially, 13,384 SNPs detected reduced to 13,073 after filtering only bi-allelic SNP. Around 75% the markers found be monomorphic progeny, reducing left mapping 3,501. Using Lep-MAP3...
AFLP and SSR DNA markers were used to construct a linkage map in the coconut (Cocos nucifera L.; 2n = 32) type Rennell Island Tall (RIT). A total of 227 arranged into 16 groups. The genome length corresponded 1971 cM for RIT map, with 5-23 per group. QTL analysis yield characters two consecutive sampling periods identified nine loci. Three QTLs detected number bunches one three nuts. correlation trait values between evaluation is partially reflected identical QTLs. represent that are...
Cuticular waxes were extracted from the leaves of a coconut mapping population generated by controlled cross an East African Tall and Rennell Island genotype for construction molecular linkage maps. The wax composition was analyzed capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, eight compounds, their absolute relative amounts determined. As reported previously different ecotype (Malayan Yellow Dwarf), lupeol methyl ether, isoskimmiwallin, skimmiwallin identified as major components...
Oil palm production is gaining importance in Central and South America. However, the main species Elaeisguineensis (Eg) suffering severely from bud rod disease, restricting potential cultivation areas. Therefore, breeding companies have started to work with interspecific Elaeisoleifera × Eg (Eo Eg) hybrids which are tolerant this disease. We performed association studies between candidate gene (CG) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) six 19 oil quality traits 198 accessions of five...
Integrated parental linkage maps have been constructed in three guava mapping populations (Enana × N, Enana Suprema Roja and Belic L-207) based on AFLP SSR markers. Between 102 119 primer combinations (PCs) were analysed each population, generating between 684 1163 segregating fragments. The distribution of parent-specific common markers indicated that is less heterozygous than the other parents all share a considerable gene pool. In addition, 28 171 PCs for these populations. Initially...
Three natural provenances of Pinus radiata D Don (Año Nuevo, Monterey and Cambria) the local landrace from Basque country in northern Spain were examined by means RAPDs (random amplified polymorphic DNAs).A high degree polymorphism was detected all 27 genotypes assay could be distinguished combining RAPD patterns only two primers.The molecular analyses indicated that population has closest affinities to Año Nuevo provenance, consistent with previous observations on performance...
We present here the results obtained after study of 156 oak populations collected along Iberian Peninsula. Six species were in sample: Quercus canariensis, Q. faginea, humilis, pyrenaica, robur and petraea. Five trees from each population analyzed with four cpDNA specific pairs primers that allowed distinction 13 haplotypes. In several species, all them shared same haplotype, none common haplotypes was restricted to a single species. Analysis molecular variance data revealed strong genetic...
Several Xylella fastidiosa subsp. (ST1) strains that cause Pierce’s disease were isolated from grapevine in Spain. In this study, we applied an approach to assess PD susceptibility among 24 different well-known Vitis vinifera cultivars and five rootstocks belonging species of the genus Vitis. Both commonly commercialized, representing about 75% cultivated area This method incorporated severity, progression, water potential stem xylem. The trials carried out under field greenhouse conditions....
<title>Abstract</title> Applying stress factors such as high temperatures during the different stages of somatic embryogenesis is either important interesting to uncover molecular mechanisms involved in response and adaptation, a strategy produce plants adapted harsh environmental conditions derived from climate changes. In this sense, present work aims study effect applied maturation ploidy stability, amino acid polyamine profiles embryos obtained morphological characteristics plantlets....
