AbstractDiverse edaphic zone (namely: usar, wastelands, forest area, wetlands, flood prone area and fertile lands) were identified in the eastern part of Uttar Pradesh and collected species of Pleurotus for present study. A total of 39 purified isolates were evaluated for the presence of neutraceuticals like proteins, carbohydrates, phenolic and vitamin B12 along with xenobiotic dye degradation capacity for textile dyes (MG and BPB) and production of laccase enzyme simultaneously. Isolate no. 06, appeared most distant in dendrogram having two major clusters, which also showed highest MG degradation capacity, however, other isolates also showed excellent degradation of BPB; and the laccase activity was found in the range of 4.03 to 19.13 IU/ml of crude enzyme extract from mycelia. All the isolates used in the present study, were also mounted for their genetic diversity analysis through RAPD. Diversity study revealed gene frequency from 0.012 to 0.987 and the average gene diversity for all RAPD loci were 0.244. The Shannon Information Index was 0.397. The unbiased genetic similarity among all pairs of isolates was 0.36 to 0.93 with a mean of 0.64. Significant genetic diversity, nutraceuticals and laccase enzyme availability and dye degradation capacity within the studied genus Pleurotus was found, which makes necessary to carry out a selection process in each one for superior selection not only for human being but also many aquatic as well as other terrestrial flora and fauna. Present investigation suggest that due to wide range of variation within species, the adaptation of strains to different edaphic zones must be taken into account in selection processes.

Abstract Morinda (Rubiaceae) is considerably recognized for its multiple uses viz. food, medicine, dyes, firewood, tools, oil, bio-sorbent etc. The molecular characterization of such an important plant would be very useful for its multifarious enhanced utilization. In the present study, 31 Morinda genotypes belonging to two different species Morinda citrifolia and Morinda tomentosa collected from different regions of India were investigated using Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers. Fifteen ISSR primers generated 176 bands with an average of 11.7 bands per primer, of which (90.34%) were polymorphic. The percentage of polymorphic bands, mean Nei’s gene diversity, mean Shannon’s information index in Morinda tomentosa and Morinda citrifolia was [(69.89%, 30.68%); (0.21 ± 0.19, 0.12 ± 0.20); (0.32 ± 0.27 0.17 ± 0.28)] respectively, revealing higher polymorphism and genetic diversity in Morinda tomentosa compared to Morinda citrifolia. Structure, and UPGMA cluster analysis placed the genotypes into well-defined separate clusters belonging to two species Morinda tomentosa and Morinda citrifolia revealing the utility of ISSR markers in species differentiation. Distinct ecotypes within a particular species could also be inferred emphasizing the collection and conservation of Morinda genotypes from different regions, in order to capture the overall diversity of respective species. Further higher diversity of M. tomentosa must be advanced for its utilization in nutraceutical, nutritional and other nonfood purposes.

Environmental Events

Forest ecosystems in Europe are expected to experience changes in temperature and water regimes associated with increased risks of extreme environmental events and disasters. Genetic diversity and relatedness has been linked to resilience of forest stands and landscapes. Genetic diversity indicators were compared between a Norway spruce population naturally regenerated after extensive windthrow and Norway spruce progeny populations derived from two seed orchards. In addition, genetic diversity in an undisturbed stand in a long established national park and a spruce genetic resource stand were analyzed. Populations were genotyped at 11 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci. Average genetic diversity indicators were similar across populations. However, the total number of alleles, average number of alleles over all loci, effective number of alleles, average gene diversity, and average allelic richness were highest in the naturally regenerated population and lowest in one of the seed orchard progeny populations. The genetic diversity in progeny from seed orchards used for stand renewal is comparable to the genetic diversity in naturally regenerated stands. However, fluctuations in seed production between years can have a large impact on genetic diversity in seed orchard progeny. The use of improved Norway spruce germplasm deployed via clonal seed orchards for forest renewal can maintain similar levels of genetic diversity compared to naturally regenerated stands, while also increasing production and timber quality.

A study was undertaken to examine the genetic diversity of 12 wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes, using 4 simple sequence repeats (SSRs). A total of 10 alleles were found. Allele number per locus ranged from 2 to 4 with an average of 2.5. The polymorphic information content (PIC) values ranged from 0.2755 to 0.5411 with an average of 0.3839. The average gene diversity over all SSR loci for the 12 wheat genotypes was 0.4688, ranging from 0.3299 to 0.6042. Cluster analysis based on microsatellite allelic diversity discriminated the varieties into different clusters. Genetic diversity was the highest between variety Gourab and Akbar as well as Gourab and BAW-1064, showing a genetic distance value of 0.4697. The genetic distance was lowest between Balaka and Aghrani as well as Triticale and BAW-1036. Positive correlations were found between gene diversity, number of alleles, the allele size range and the types of repeat motif of microsatellite markers. It was found from this study that microsatellite markers could characterize and discriminate all of the genotypes. More primers should be used for saturation of different regions in further studies.

A large scale of EST sequences of Polyporales was screened in this investigation in order to identify EST-SSR markers for various applications. The distribution of EST sequences and SSRs in five families of Polyporales was analyzed, respectively. Mononucleotide was the most abundant type, followed by trinucleotide. Among five families, Ganodermataceae occupied the most SSR markers, followed by Coriolaceae. Functional prediction of SSR marker-containing EST sequences inGanoderma lucidumobtained three main groups, namely, cellular component, biological process, and molecular function. Thirty EST-SSR primers were designed to evaluate the genetic diversity of 13 naturalPolyporus umbellatusaccessions. Twenty one EST-SSRs were polymorphic with average PIC value of 0.33 and transferability rate of 71%. These 13P.umbellatusaccessions showed relatively high genetic diversity. The expected heterozygosity, Nei’s gene diversity, and Shannon information index were 0.41, 0.39, and 0.57, respectively. Both UPGMA dendrogram and principal coordinate analysis (PCA) showed the same cluster result that divided the 13 accessions into three or four groups.

Abstract Metal accumulation in soil and plant tissues has caused severe ecological damage in forest ecosystems in the Sudbury region. The main objective of the present study was to determine the levels of genetic diversity in jack and red pine populations growing in metal contaminated and uncontaminated areas. Newly introduced populations were compared to 40 to 60 old populations. For jack pine, the percentage of polymorphic loci (P %) ranged from 14.6% to 45.8% with a mean of 31.6%. Nei’s gene diversity (h) varied from 0.046 to 0.169 with an average of 0.100, and Shannon’s index (I) ranged from 0.070 to 0.250 with an average of 0.153. The level of genetic variation was much lower in the red pine populations. For this species, the level of polymorphic loci varied from 4.55% to 27.27%. The mean for Nei’s gene diversity and Shannon’s information index, were 0.034 and 0.053, respectively. The highest genetic diversity values were observed in new plantations being developed by the Sudbury reforestation program. Overall, the genetic distance among the Pinus banksiana populations revealed that all the populations analyzed were genetically close to each other. There was no association between metal accumulation and genetic diversity for both species.

Genetic information is essential for conservation and future aquaculture development of the endangered catfish Rita rita (Hamilton, 1822). Two hundred catfish, R. rita, 50 from four rivers, the Old Brahmaputra, Jamuna, Meghna and Kangsa were collected and analysed to evaluate the genetic diversity and population structure using five microsatellite primers (Cba06-KUL, Cba08-KUL, Cba09-KUL, Phy03-KUL and Phy07-KUL). Four of the five amplified loci were found polymorphic (P95) in all the populations and 46 alleles were recorded with 9 to 14 alleles per locus. Differences were observed in the total number of alleles ranging from 41 to 44, effective number of alleles from 29.96 to 37.46, observed heterozygosity from 0.57 to 0.76, Shannon’s information index from 2.09 to 2.30 and polymorphic information content from 0.84 to 0.88 among the four populations. Results exposed the highest levels of genetic diversity in the Meghna population while the lowest in the Kangsa population of R. rita. All the populations were significantly deviated (P < 0.001) from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for all the loci. Nei’s genetic distance between populations ranged 0.007 to 0.017 with low overall genetic difference FST = 0.011 and high gene flow Nm = 24.333, indicating that R. rita populations were not subdivided. This study revealed a high level of gene diversity with deficiency in genetic heterogeneity in all the populations of R. rita, emphasising natural management, conservation and rehabilitation measures of this species.

Mangifera indica L. germplasm can be classified by origin with the primary groups being cultivars selected from the centers of diversity for the species, India and Southeast Asia, and those selected in Florida and other tropical and subtropical locations. Accessions have also been classified by horticultural type: cultivars that produce monoembryonic seed vs. cultivars that produce polyembryonic seed. In this study, we used 25 microsatellite loci to estimate genetic diversity among 203 accessions. The 25 microsatellite loci had an average of 6.96 alleles per locus and an average PIC value of 0.552. The total propagation error in the collection, i.e., plants that had been incorrectly labeled or grafted, was estimated to be 6.13%. When compared by origin, the Florida cultivars were more closely related to Indian than to Southeast Asian cultivars. Unbiased gene diversity (Hnb) of 0.600 and 0.582 was found for Indian and Southeast Asian cultivars, respectively, and both were higher than Hnb among Florida cultivars (0.538). When compared by horticultural type, Hnb was higher among the polyembryonic types (0.596) than in the monoembryonic types (0.571). Parentage analysis of the Florida cultivars was accomplished using a multistage process based on introduction dates of cultivars into Florida and selection dates of Florida cultivars. Microsatellite marker evidence suggests that as few as four Indian cultivars, and the land race known as `Turpentine', were involved in the early cultivar selections. Florida may not represent a secondary center of diversity; however, the Florida group is a unique set of cultivars selected under similar conditions offering production stability in a wide range of environments.

AbstractGenetic variability in date palm genotypes collected from different regions of southern Tunisia was analyzed using a Start Codon Targeted (SCoT) marker system. Thirty-one accessions collected from three locations were investigated. One hundred and nine amplicons were produced among which 84 % were polymorphic. The PIC value and the Rp values testified of the efficiency of used primers. The percentage of polymorphic loci (Pp) varied from 44.57 to 83.70 %, Nei‘s gene diversity (H) from 0.175 to 0.273 with a mean of 0.228, and Shannon‘s information index (I) values ranging from 0.257 to 0.409 with an average value of 0.338 were illustrated. The Tunisian date palm populations exhibited high genetic differentiation (GST = 0.319) and gene flow (Nm = 1.063). The AMOVA analysis presented 70 % of the variation within the population and 30 % of the variation between them. Phylogenetic analysis and the Bayesian clustering approach also revealed high genetic variation among genetic variants with a net divergence of the wild insular population of Kerkennah from other cultivars. The present investigation suggests the effectiveness of the SCoT marker system to estimate the genetic diversity of Phoenix dactylifera genotypes.

North East India is extremely rich in natural resources and is a biodiversity hotspot. Many plant species, including Citrus are known to have originated from this region. Citus macroptera Mont. is a wild, endangered species which have been found to exist naturally in various parts of this region, including Meghalaya. To access the genetic variability among genotypes and their phylogeny, 30 genotypes of wild C. macroptera Mont. were collected from Garo Hills of Meghalaya. Single primer based DNA markers viz. RAPD, ISSR, DAMD were utilized to ascertain genetic diversity. The percentage polymorphic bands for RAPD, ISSR, DAMD were found to be 97.71%, 94.67% and 100% respectively. ISSR showed the highest values for both RP (7.67) and MI (5.03) highlighting its efficacy in determining genetic variations. A concatenated approach, Single Primer Amplification Reaction (SPAR) was also followed to assess their genetic diversity. Dendogram generated from SPAR data showed that the South-West Garo Hills population is the most recently evolved amongst all others while West Garo Hills collections retain an ancestral position in the evolutionary time-frame. Population genetics parametres such as Gene flow (Nm) and the diversity among populations (GST) were found to be 1.9894 and 0.2009 respectively. Gene flow estimates (Nm>1) suggests appreciable gene flow in the populations. AMOVA data further supported this with high percentage of variations (92%) within populations whereas variations among populations were about 8% only. Shannon’s information index (I) values and Nei’s gene diversity (h) varied between 0.303-0.423and 0.201-0.285 respectively. The use of SPAR method yields a clear and concise picture of the underlying genetic variabilities, and a detailed and comprehensive data analysis will help conceive efficient and sustainable conservation strategies for this important plant.
