Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

To evaluate the genetic diversity in 48 winter bread wheat genotypes originating from different countries, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with 4 replications was carried out in drip irrigation and rain-fed conditions at the field station of the Transitional Zone Agricultural Research Institute, Eskişehir, Turkey in 2011 and 2012. Based on grain yield under rain-fed and irrigated conditions, drought tolerance indices, i.e. stress susceptibility index (SSI), stress tolerance index (STI), tolerance index (TOL), mean productivity (MP), and geometric mean productivity (GMP), were calculated to identify genotypes with better yield and drought tolerance. Analysis of variance indicated that …


Genetic Diversity And Chemical Characterization Of Selected Polish And Russian Cultivars And Clones Of Blue Honeysuckle (Lonicera Caerulea), Elzbieta Kaczmarska, Jacek Gawronski, Magdalena Dyduch-Sieminska, Agnieszka Najda, Wojciech Marecki, Jadwiga Zebrowska Jan 2015

Genetic Diversity And Chemical Characterization Of Selected Polish And Russian Cultivars And Clones Of Blue Honeysuckle (Lonicera Caerulea), Elzbieta Kaczmarska, Jacek Gawronski, Magdalena Dyduch-Sieminska, Agnieszka Najda, Wojciech Marecki, Jadwiga Zebrowska

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In traditional medicine, Lonicera caerulea has a notable place, and it has been used for thousands of years in East Asian countries for treating cancer, inflammation, hepatic complications, influenza, and wounds. However, the molecular and chemical characterization of this plant is not well defined. In this study, inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to determine the genetic variability of 7 blue honeysuckle cultivars and 3 clones. To characterize these 10 accessions, total flavonoids, phenolic acids contents, and antioxidant activities were estimated. Twelve primers generated 101 polymorphic ISSR-polymerase chain reaction bands. Based on the ISSR amplification profiles, a cluster dendrogram …


Identification And Functional Annotation Of Expressed Sequencetags Based Ssr Markers Of Stevia Rebaudiana, Rajinder Kaur, Neha Sharma, Ravinder Raina Jan 2015

Identification And Functional Annotation Of Expressed Sequencetags Based Ssr Markers Of Stevia Rebaudiana, Rajinder Kaur, Neha Sharma, Ravinder Raina

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni, a perennial herb belonging to the family Asteraceae, is a tropical as well as subtropical plant of medicinal importance. Despite being an important medicinal plant and in fact proving a boon to diabetics, it has remained almost ignored by molecular biologists. A systematic molecular evaluation of stevia germplasm and molecular breeding work are sparsely reported mainly due to the limited specific molecular markers available. Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are a valuable resource for developing simple sequence repeats (SSRs). In this study, 5548 stevia ESTs sequences from leaf tissues were retrieved from the NCBI database. Clustering and assembly …


Genetic Variability And Relationship Studies In New Indian Papaya (Carica Papaya L.) Germplasm Using Morphological And Molecular Markers, Parmeshwar Lal Saran, Ravish Choudhary, Ishwar Singh Solanki, Pravin Patil, Sanjay Kumar Jan 2015

Genetic Variability And Relationship Studies In New Indian Papaya (Carica Papaya L.) Germplasm Using Morphological And Molecular Markers, Parmeshwar Lal Saran, Ravish Choudhary, Ishwar Singh Solanki, Pravin Patil, Sanjay Kumar

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Papaya germplasm showed wide morphological diversity in terms of fruit yield, weight, length, cavity, fruiting zone, flesh thickness, flesh color, and total soluble solids content. RAPD and ISSR markers also showed polymorphisms at rates of of 84.32% and 84.67%, respectively. Jaccard's genetic similarity values of RAPD and ISSR were found in the range of 0.30-0.99 (average: 0.65) and 0.26-0.95 (average: 0.61), respectively, suggesting a moderate level of genetic diversity within the papaya group. Seven of the 15 RAPD primers and 5 of the 11 ISSR primers were also able to generate cultivar-specific amplicons, which were used for identification of germplasms …

Comparative Analysis Of Genetic Diversity Among Chinese Watermelon Germplasmsusing Ssr And Srap Markers, And Implications For Future Genetic Improvement, Pangqiao Wang, Qiong Li, Jianbin Hu, Yan Su

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

The genetic diversity of watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai] in China, the world's largest producer of watermelon fruits, has not been examined. Two molecular markers, sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) and simple sequence repeat (SSR), were used to investigate the genetic variation and genetic relationship among 54 Chinese watermelon accessions, as well as 7 accessions from Africa, the United States, and Japan. SRAP assay generated 312 bands, of which 163 were polymorphic, while SSR assay detected 101 alleles with 87 polymorphic alleles and 114 genotypes. A comparative analysis of the diversity index, effective multiplex ratio, and marker index of …


Genetic Diversity And Population Structure Of Common Bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.) Accessions Through Retrotransposon-Based Interprimer Binding Sites (Ipbss) Markers, Seda Nemli̇, Tala Kianoosh, Muhammed Bahatti̇n Tanyolaç Jan 2015

Genetic Diversity And Population Structure Of Common Bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.) Accessions Through Retrotransposon-Based Interprimer Binding Sites (Ipbss) Markers, Seda Nemli̇, Tala Kianoosh, Muhammed Bahatti̇n Tanyolaç

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is an important crop throughout the world and is highly recommended for many developing countries due to its nutritional components. A retrotransposon-based DNA marker system, interprimer binding sites (iPBSs), developed from reverse transcriptase primer binding sites, was used to determine genetic diversity in common bean accessions. The genetic polymorphism and effectiveness of the marker system were evaluated. A total of 180 polymorphic bands were detected using 47 iPBS primers among 67 common bean accessions, with an average of 4 polymorphic fragments per primer. The genetic similarity between accessions was calculated using the software NTSYS-pc …
