Woad (Isatis tinctoria L.) was introduced in Europe in ancient times to produce indigo, a natural blue pigment used mainly for dyestuff. This species was cultivated in Portugal until the beginning of the 20th century, especially in the inner North and South. A set of nine inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers generated 177 reproducible fragments, of which 171 were polymorphic. The mean number of fragments/accession was 111, ranging between 100 (Portugal-Coimbra) and 124 (Poland). The total polymorphism observed was 0.3272, the average polymorphism was 0.1784 and the gene differentiation between accessions was 0.4546. Polymorphism ranged between 53.8% (Austria) and 73.1% (Belgium). The genetic relationship among woad accessions was obtained with unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean dendrogram based on a molecular marker, clearly clustering the woad accessions according to their geographic origin. The genetic diversity observed in this collection shows that there is a considerable potential for its improvement and that ISSR could be used to evaluate intra- and inter-accession similarities in I. tinctoria species.

The goal of this study was to determine the level of genetic diversity and relatedness among 16 strawberry (Fragaria H ananassa Duch.) cultivars and 11 breeding lines developed in Canada, using Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers. Seventeen primers generated 225 polymorphic ISSR-PCR bands. Cluster analysis by the unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA) revealed a substantial degree of genetic similarity among the genotypes ranging from 63 to 77% that were in agreement with the principal coordinate (PCO) analysis. Geographical distribution for the place of breeding program explained only 1.4% of total variation as revealed by analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA). The ISSR markers detected a sufficient degree of polymorphism to differentiate among strawberry genotypes, making this technology valuable for cultivar identification and for the more efficient choice of parents in current strawberry breeding programs.

The genetic diversity of 27 mulberry (Morus spp.) genotypes mainly from China was investigated using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers to assist in addressing breeding objectives and conserving existing genetic resources. Of the 22 primers screened, 15 produced highly reproducible ISSR bands. Using these 15 primers, 138 discernible DNA fragments were generated with 126 (91.3%) being polymorphic, indicating considerable genetic variation among the mulberry genotypes studied. Genetic similarity ranged from 0.6014 between Yu 2 and Yu 711 to 0.9493 between Cuizhisang and Dejiang 10. The phenetic dendrogram based on ISSR data generated by the unweighed pair group method with arithmetical averages (UPGMA) method grouped the 27 accessions into two major clusters: cluster I, cultivated mulberry species (M. multicaulis Perr., M. alba Linn., M. atropurpurea oxb., M. bombycis Kiodz., M. australis Poir., M. rotundiloba Kiodz., M. alba var. pendula Dipp., M. alba var. macrophylla Loud., and M. alba var. venose Delile.); and cluster II, wild mulberry species (M. cathayana Hemsl., M. laevigata Wall., M. wittiorum Hand-Mazz., M. nigra Linn., and M. mongolica Schneid.). Our molecular analyses agree with the existing morphological classification of Morus and clarify the genetic relationships among mulberry species.

Abstract. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic diversity and structure in three Iranian native goat breeds (Markhoz, Mahabadi and Lori) and the Beetal imported breed using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers and also to investigate ISSR markers' potential in order to genetically separate single (S) and twin-birth (T) subpopulations. Blood samples were collected from 210 animals for this purpose. In total, 16 primers were used, and finally 5 primers were selected based on the number of clear bands and the level of polymorphisms. The result of this study showed that 76 of 86 observed fragments were polymorphic. Genetic diversity for each breed ranged from 0.23 in the Beetal breed to 0.26 in the Markhoz breed; this represents a relatively similar genetic diversity in these breeds. An unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) dendrogram based on the Nei's standard genetic distance between the breeds studied showed that three Iranian goat breeds (Mahabadi, Lori and Markhoz) were clustered closer together, while the Beetal breed formed a separate cluster. In the constructed dendrogram of the subpopulations, the S and T subpopulations of each breed were clustered together. The constructed dendrogram of the Beetal breed and the S and T subpopulations of all breeds studied showed a separate cluster for the Beetal breed as an imported breed and another cluster for the S and T subpopulations as Iranian native breeds. The current study showed that the ISSR markers studied had no potential to genetically separate S and T subpopulations. On the other hand, these ISSR markers can be used for the clustering of distinct populations.

Forty-three wild lingonberry [Vaccinium vitis-idaea ssp. minus (Lodd) Hult.] clones collected from four Canadian provinces were assessed for genetic variability by using inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR). Fifteen primers generated 356 polymorphic ISSR-PCR bands. A substantial degree of genetic diversity was found am ong the wild collections. Cluster analysis by the unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA) separated the wild clones into four main clusters, and identified the two remaining clones as outliers. Furthermore, within four clusters, the genotypes tended to form sub-clusters that were in agreement with the principal coordinate (PCO) analysis. Geographical distribution explained 10% of total variation as revealed by analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA). The ISSR markers detected a sufficient degree of polymorphism to differentiate among lingonberry clones, making this technology valuable for germplasm management and the more efficient choice of parents in current lingonberry breeding programs.

Necrotrophic Effector

Pyrenophora tritici-repentis (Ptr) causes tan spot, an important foliar disease of wheat. A collection of Ptr isolates from Tunisia, located in one of the main secondary centers of diversification of durum wheat, was tested for phenotypic race classification based on virulence on a host differential set, and for the presence of the necrotrophic effector (NE) genes ToxA, ToxB , and toxb by PCR analysis. While races 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 were identified according to their virulence phenotypes, PCR testing indicated the presence of ‘atypical’ isolates that induced necrosis on the wheat differential ‘Glenlea’, but lacked the expected ToxA gene, suggesting the involvement of other NEs in the Ptr/wheat interaction. Genetic diversity and the Ptr population structure were explored further by examining 59 Tunisian isolates and 35 isolates from Algeria, Azerbaijan, Canada, Iran, and Syria using 24 simple sequence repeat markers. Average genetic diversity, overall gene flow and percentage polymorphic loci were estimated as 0.58, 2.09 and 87%, respectively. Analysis of molecular variance showed that 81% of the genetic variance occurred within populations and 19% between populations. Cluster analysis by the unweighted pair group method indicated that ToxB- isolates grouped together and were distantly related to ToxB+ isolates. Based on Nei’s analysis, the global collection clustered into two distinct groups according to their region of origin. The results suggest that both geographic origin and the host-specificity imposed by different NEs can lead to differentiation among Ptr populations.

In this study genetic diversity and interspecific relationships of 11 Allium L. species from Khorassan province of Iran including 32 accessions were investigated by inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers. Nine ISSR primers produced a total of 80 polymorphic markers and revealed high polymorphism among the studied species. The average gene diversity, effective number of alleles and Shannon’s information index were 0.2, 1.28 and 0.3, respectively. Allium kuhsorkhense exhibited the greatest level of variation (He: 0.18), whereas A. stipitatum demonstrated the lowest level of variability (He: 0.05). UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic mean) analysis showed that Allium accessions have a similarity range of 0.60 to 0.95. Allium scapriscapum composed the most distant group in the dendrogram. The clustered groups of Allium species clearly reflect the recent taxonomic concept of the genus at the subgenus and section levels. The present study showed that the ISSR technique is an effective molecular approach for analyzing genetic diversity and relationship in Allium species.Bangladesh J.

Mexican sunflower is a native species of North and Central America that was introduced into China early last century, but it has widely naturalized and become a harmful invasive plant in tropical and subtropical regions in South China. Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were employed to assess genetic diversity and variation in Mexican sunflower populations from China and neighboring regions. The karyotypes of populations were also studied. Our research showed high levels of genetic diversity in all populations. The lowest genetic diversity estimates were represented in two populations in Laos, suggesting prevention of new introductions into Laos is critical. Partitioning of genetic variance revealed that genetic variation was mostly found within populations, and unweighted pair group method with arithmetic means (UPGMA) analysis showed that the introductions into China and Laos were independent. There were no obvious correlations between genetic relationships and geographic distance of populations in China, consistent with the human associated dispersal history of Mexican sunflower. Previous cytological data and our chromosome count (2n = 34) and karyotype analysis showed chromosome stability among populations. The high levels of genetic diversity within invasive Mexican sunflower populations could be challenging for its management in China, and further expansion and potential negative effects on ecological systems of this plant should be monitored.

Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc), an African indigenous legume, is popular in most parts of Africa. The present study was undertaken to establish genetic relationships among 16 cultivated bambara groundnut landraces using fluorescence-based amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Seven selective primer combinations generated 504 amplification products, ranging from 50 to 400 bp. Several landrace-specific products were identified that could be effectively used to produce landrace-specific markers for identification purposes. On average, each primer combination generated 72 amplified products that were detectable by an ABI Prism 310 DNA sequencer. The polymorphisms obtained ranged from 68.0 to 98.0%, with an average of 84.0%. The primer pairs M-ACA + P-GCC and M-ACA + P-GGA produced more polymorphic fragments than any other primer pairs and were better at differentiating landraces. The dendrogram generated by the UPGMA (unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic averaging) grouped 16 landraces into 3 clusters, mainly according to their place of collection or geographic origin. DipC1995 and Malawi5 were the most genetically related landraces. AFLP analysis provided sufficient polymorphism to determine the amount of genetic diversity and to establish genetic relationships in bambara groundnut landraces. The results will help in the formulation of marker-assisted breeding in bambara groundnut.Key words: under-utilized, African legume, molecular markers.

Though the vascular wilt of tomato caused by the species of Fusarium is globally reported to be a complex disease in certain countries, for example, India, our studies indicated that the disease is caused by either Fusarium oxysporum f. spp. lycopersici (Fol) or Fusarium solani (FS) with the Fol being widely prevalent. In assessing the genetic diversity of 14 Fol strains representing the four Indian states by the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic averaging using Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) amplicons, the strains distinguished themselves into two major clusters showing no correlation with their geographic origin. In pot experiments under polyhouse conditions, the seed dressing and soil application of a talc-based formulation of a biocontrol treatment, TEPF-Sungal-1 (Pseudomonas putida) + S17TH (Trichoderma harzianum) + CG-A (Chaetomium globosum), which inhibited Fol, was equally effective like the cell suspensions and was even better than the fungicidal mixture (copper oxychloride-0.25% + carbendazim-0.1%) in promoting the crop growth (52.3%) and reducing vascular wilt incidence (75%) over the control treatment, despite the challenge of inoculation with a highly pathogenic TOFU-IHBT strain. This was associated with significant expressions of the defense genes, indicating the induction of host resistance by a biocontrol consortium. In field experiments on two locations, the bioconsortium was highly effective in recording maximum mean fruit yields (54.5 and 60%) and a minimum mean vascular wilt incidence (37.5%) in comparison to the untreated control. Thus, Chaetomium-based bioconsortium demonstrated consistency in its performance across the two experiments in 2 years under the two field conditions.

Cherimoya (Annona cherimola Mill.) is an underused fruit crop with a clear niche for expansion in subtropical climates. In this study, 16 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were used to find molecular polymorphisms among 279 cherimoya accessions from a worldwide ex situ field germplasm collection. A total of 79 amplification fragments were amplified with 16 pairs of SSR primers, with an average of 4.9 bands/SSR. Mean expected and observed heterozygosities averaged 0.53 and 0.44, respectively. The total value for the probability of identity was 4.34 × 10−8. The SSRs studied resulted in 267 different fingerprinting profiles, of which 258 were unique genotypes; the rest were putative cases of synonymies or mislabeling errors. Unweighted pair group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA) cluster analysis indicated the relationships among the analyzed accessions, showing some specific groups related to their geographical origins. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) was performed to examine the distribution of genetic variation of the 148 accessions collected from putative cherimoya origin areas in Ecuador and Peru, showing that the major variations occurred within valleys in each country. The results confirmed the usefulness of microsatellites for identification of genetic diversity and geographic origin of cherimoya and are discussed in terms of their implications for ex situ conservation of cherimoya genetic resources.
