Genetic Variability Of Bilaterally Symmetrical Fruits Of Norway Maple In Function Of Species Biodiversity Conservation, Isidora Simovic, Mirjana Ocokoljic, Dragica Obratov-Petkovic, Dragica Vilotic Jan 2015

Genetic Variability Of Bilaterally Symmetrical Fruits Of Norway Maple In Function Of Species Biodiversity Conservation, Isidora Simovic, Mirjana Ocokoljic, Dragica Obratov-Petkovic, Dragica Vilotic

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Parkway trees in urban environments have a pivotal ecological role, primarily because they modify microclimatological parameters. Norway maple is a suitable species for these purposes since it is very adaptable to city conditions. This characteristic of Norway maple allows urban trees to be used as a basis for biodiversity conservation. Bilaterally symmetrical fruits of Norway maple are particularly convenient for the exploration of developmental stability and the role of genetic and environment in variability of morphological characteristics of Norway maple. Variability change through different conditions could be used for creation of a scale that could serve to predict morphology of …

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 …
