ABSTRACT   Runtunuwu, S.D. et al. 2008. Assembling Hybrid Coconut of GSK x DMT Based on RAPD (RANDOMLY AMPLIFIED POLYMORPHIC DNA) Marker. Eugenia 14 (1) : 134-152.   The aimed of this research was : 1. assembling hybrid coconut GSK x DMT (Genjah Salak x Dalam Mapanget) that seeds growth was relatifly homogeneous based on RAPD (Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA) marker and 2. to found the assembling method of hybrid coconut that will produce massive seeds relatifely short time will homogeneous plant. It was 65 individu trees observe for the average of famale flower per bunch. The result was 25 individu of coconut GSK has the average flower production > 40 per bunch was analyze the homogeneous genetic with the RAPD marker. Based on the analyze RAPD that were 25 individu of GSK coconut trees have the same genetic average 88 % and 14 individu among that was 100 % have same genetic. Further more that 14 individu of GSK was crossing with the 3 individu of DMT that have high yield per year its was DMT 1188, 1172 and 781. Based on the evaluation for the color of buds, high of buds, the steam circle, the petiole color and the germination time of hybrid coconut seeds from the crossing of GSK x DMT 1188 produce more than    70 % seeds that have same genetic, also for crossing of GSK x DMT 1172 have 9 combination and have more than 70 % that same genetic, 10 combination from crossing GSK x DMT 781 have more than 80 % same seeds growth. Therefore, using the RAPD marker were successfully produced 28 crossing of the hybrid coconut GSK x DMT that have relatifly homogeneous seeds growth.   Keywords : assembling, hybrid coconut GSK x DMT, RAPD.

Seed size is an important trait in common bean. The objective was to identify RAPD markers associated with QTL for seed weight, seed length, and seed height in a molecular marker-based linkage map in a recombinant inbred (RI) population from the common bean cross of the larger seeded (100 seed/39 to 47 g) PC-50 (ovate seed shape) × smaller seeded (100 seed/26 to 35 g) XAN-159 (flat rhomboidal seed shape). The parents and RI lines were grown in two separate greenhouse and two field (Wisconsin, Dominican Republic) experiments using a RCBD. Continuous distributions for seed weight, seed length, and seed height were observed for RI lines indicating quantitative inheritance. One to three QTLs affecting seed weight explained 17% to 41% of the phenotypic variation. Two to three QTLs for seed length explained 23% to 45% of the phenotypic variation. One to four QTL associated with seed height explained 17% to 39% of the phenotypic variation. A RAPD marker M5.850 in linkage group 3 was consistently associated with seed weight, seed length, and seed height in all experiments and explained 7% to 13% of the phenotypic variation for these traits. A seedcoat pattern morphological marker (C) in linkage group 1 was associated with seed weight and seed height in two greenhouse experiments.

This paper presents an overview of fatigue testing systems in high-cycle regime for metals subjected to uniaxial and multiaxial random loadings. The different testing systems are critically discussed, highlighting advantages and possible limitations. By identifying relevant features, the testing systems are classified in terms of type of machine (servo-hydraulic or shaker tables), specimen geometry and applied constraints, number of load or acceleration inputs needed to perform the test, type of loading acting on the specimen and resulting state of stress. Specimens with plate, cylindrical and more elaborated geometry are also considered as a further classification criterion. This review also discusses the relationship between the applied input and the resulting local state of stress in the specimen. Since a general criterion to classify fatigue testing systems for random loadings seems not to exist, the present review—by emphasizing analogies and differences among various layouts—may provide the reader with a guideline to classify future equipment.

Abstract The genetic structure of shrimp (Pandalus borealis) in the Northeast Atlantic was examined by RAPD analysis on specimens caught at eight stations in the Barents Sea, three off Svalbard, two off Jan Mayen, and in two northern Norwegian fjords (19 < n > 31 per station). A total of 34 polymorphic markers generated by seven 10-mer arbitrary primers was used to assess the genetic population structure using analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA). There was considerable RAPD diversity (>90%) among shrimp at all stations. The two Norwegian fjords and the Jan Mayen stations were different from all the others, and the Jan Mayen stations also differed from each other. More than 98% of the genetic variation between Barents Sea and Svalbard was ascribed to individual diversity, and there was no significant difference between the two areas, although there seemed to be a subpopulation structure in the Barents Sea. Principal component analysis on the frequency of each RAPD marker on each sampled station confirmed the presence of three populations: Barents Sea and Svalbard, northern Norwegian fjords, and Jan Mayen. We postulate that the large genetic variability found at an individual level may provide the total population with a diverse genetic pool from which traits can be selected to respond to variations in local environmental conditions, and that this local selection may be the cause of the subpopulation structure observed.

In India 14 seagrass species can be found with monospecific genera (Enhalus, ThalassiaandSyringodium),Cymodoceawith two species andHalophilaandHalodulerepresented by more than two taxonomically complex species. Considering this, the present study was made to understand the level and pattern of genetic variability among these species collected from Tamilnadu coast, India. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was used to evaluate the level of polymorphism existing between the species. Out of the 12 primers tested, 10 primers amplified 415 DNA fragments with an average of 41.5 fragments per primer. Of the total 415 amplified fragments only 123 (29.7%) were monomorphic and the remaining 292 (70.3%) were polymorphic for Indian seagrass species. Among the 10 primers used four are identified as the key primers capable of distinguishing all the Indian seagrasses with a high degree of polymorphism and bringing representative polymorphic alleles in all the tested seagrasses. From the present investigation, this study shows that the RAPD marker technique can be used not only as a tool to analyse genetic diversity but also to resolve the taxonomic uncertainties existing in the Indian seagrasses. The efficiency of these primers in bringing out the genetic polymorphism or homogeneity among different populations of theHalophilaandHalodulecomplex still has to be tested before recommending these primers as an identification tool for Indian seagrasses.

We tested the constancy of linkage relationships of randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker loci used to construct a population-based consensus map in material from an Italian stand of Picea abies (L.) Karst. in 29 individuals from three Norwegian populations. Thirteen marker loci linked in the Italian stand did show a consistent locus ordering in the Norwegian population. The remaining 16 unlinked marker loci were spread over different linkage groups and (or) too far apart both in the population map and in this study. The limited validity of RAPD markers as genomic "hallmarks" resilient across populations is discussed. We also investigated the reliability of RAPD markers; only 58% of the RAPD markers previously used to construct the consensus map in the Italian population were repeatable in the same material. Of the repeatable ones 76.3% were amplified and found polymorphic in 29 megagametophyte sibships from three Norwegian populations.
