Abstract A total of 568 new simple sequence repeat (SSR)-based markers for barley have been developed from a combination database sequences and small insert genomic libraries enriched range short repeats. Analysis the SSRs on 16 cultivars revealed variable levels informativeness but no obvious correlation was found with SSR length, motif type, or map position. Of developed, 242 were genetically mapped, 216 37 previously published in single doubled-haploid population derived F1 an...
Simple sequence repeats (SSRs), consisting of tandemly repeated multiple copies mono-, di-, tri-, or tetranucleotide motifs, are ubiquitous in eukaryotic genomes and frequently used as genetic markers, taking advantage their length polymorphism. We have examined the polymorphism such sequences chloroplast plants, by using a PCR-based assay. GenBank searches identified presence several (dA)n.(dT)n mononucleotide stretches genomes. A (cp) SSR was three pine species (Pinus contorta, Pinus...
Habitat destruction and the resultant fragmentation of remaining forest are a common phenomenon in tropics. Most investigations emphasize potential dangers isolating patches exposing populations to loss species diversity through founder effects, genetic drift, inbreeding, restricted gene flow. However, limited number studies have shown that flow may be extensive tropical trees, suggesting it occur between fragments also “isolated” remnant trees. There is an urgent need quantify pollen within...
Abstract In human genetics a detailed knowledge of linkage disequilibrium (LD) is considered prerequisite for effective population-based, high-resolution gene mapping and cloning. Similar opportunities exist plants; however, differences in breeding system population history need to be considered. Here we report study localized LD different populations an inbreeding crop species. We measured between within four loci the region surrounding hardness locus three pools barley (Hordeum vulgare)....
Abstract We used chloroplast simple sequence repeats (cpSSRs) to examine whether there is any variation present in the genome of Pinus torreyana (Parry ex Carrière) that may previously not have been detected using RFLPs. Analysis 17 cpSSR loci showed no variation, which consistent with previous cpRFLP work and confirms species descended from an original, highly monomorphic population following a bottleneck. This lack biological P. allowed us estimate mutation rates at as between 3.2 × 10-5...
The development of new barleys tolerant abiotic and biotic stresses is an essential part the continued improvement crop. domestication barley, as in many crops, resulted a marked truncation genetical variation present wild populations. This process significant to agronomists scientists because lack allelic will prevent adapted cultivars hinder investigation genetic mechanisms underlying performance. Wild barley would be useful source for stress tolerance if surveys identify appropriate...
