Species identification is fundamentally important within the fields of biology, biogeography, ecology and conservation. The genus Paracaryum belongs to tribe Cynoglosseae of the family Boraginaceae is a herbaceous genus including approximately 67 species, mostly distributed in the Irano-Turanian phytogeographical region. In spite vast distribution of many Paracaryum species that grow in different habitats, there are not any available report on their genetic diversity, mode of divergence and patterns of dispersal. Therefore, we performed molecular (ISSR markers) of 98 accessions from 12 species of Paracaryum that were collected from different habitats. A set of 10 ISSR markers was used. The genetic distances were estimated based on Jaccard similarity coefficient and the descriptive statistics of populations for estimation of genetic parameters were also performed. A total of 90 polymorphic bands were obtained. The present study revealed that ISSR data can delimit the species. AMOVA and STRUCTURE analysis revealed that the species of Paracaryum belongs are genetically differentiated but have some degree of shared common alleles.

Background: Crataegus spp. (Hawthorn) are used for horticultural and medicinal purposes. Objectives: In the present study, the genetic relationships among the five Iranian Crataegus species were evaluated by Inter Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) molecular marker Methods: PCR reactions were performed using six primers (811, 827, 834, 845, 856, and 868) and genetic similarity was calculated based on Jacquard’s similarity coefficient. Results: Six primers generated 79 products in total, of which 71 were polymorphic (89.9%), with an average of 13.1 bands per primer. The percentage of polymorphic bands ranged from 77 to 100. Primer 856 produced the highest number of bands, while the lowest was generated by primer 845. The Jacquard’s similarity coefficient, derived from ISSR marker analysis, ranged from 0.164 to 0.337, indicating high genetic variation among Crataegus species in Iran. Conclusion: This study provides important data for identifying species relationships and helps develop plant breeding strategies to improve the medicinal properties of this genus in the future.

Inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used for variation analysis among 41 tomato accessions. A total of 50 scorable bands were obtained, where 32 were polymorphic, representing 63.3% of all the amplified loci. Polymorphism percentage ranged from 50 to 90% and an average number of polymorphic bands of 4.0 were observed. An average genetic diversity index was 0.61. Primer UBC860 and UBC825 generated the greatest diversity index with a value of 0.89 and 0.85 respectively. The smallest diversity identified by primer UBC808, with an index of 0.34. The genetic similarity among studied genotypes ranged from 0.52 to 0.98. The cluster analysis based on Jaccard?s similarity coefficient divided genotypes into 6 distinct clusters on a value of 0.74. The lowest genetic distance was found between ?Gronastiy? and ?AG1224? (0.52), ?Orange? and ?AG1224? (0.54), and ?Evgeniya? and ?AG1224? (0.55) accessions. The highest similarity of 0.98 was determined between ?Zafar? and ?Azerbaijan-94?, ?Khachmaz-1? and ?Azerbaijan-94?, ?Khachmaz-1? and ?Severyanka?, and ?Shakar? and ?Absheron-1? accessions.

Alcea L. is one of the largest genera of Malvaceae family with nearly 70 species worldwide mainly distributed in SW Asia. According to the latest revision of the family, it is represented by 34 species in the Flora of Iran, among them, 15 species are endemic. It is tough to accurate germplasm/ plant recognition by using morphological characteristics because of its propagation, growing and using. We conducted a molecular data analysis on these plant species due to their importance. We examined 156 plants from 14 species in 16 regions that were selected randomly for this investigation. It has been 119 polymorphic bands (94.33%) were resulted from 128 bands of 10 primers in amplification of genomic DNA. ISSR primers have a great capacity to detect polymorphic loci among Alcea species, as evidenced by the high average PIC and MI values found. The genetic similarity of 14 species was calculated and ranged between 0.635 to 0.990. Inter-Simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers research revealed that Alcea tarica Pakravan & Ghahreman and Alcea kopetdaghensis lljin had the least similarity, while Alcea semnanica Pakravan and Alcea mazandaranica Pakravan & Ghahreman had the most. The current study attempts to answer three questions: 1) can ISSR markers identify Alcea species? 2) what is the genetic structure of these taxa in Iran? and 3) what is the inter-relationship between these taxa? The current study discovered that ISSR markers can be used to identify species.

Abstract The utility of seventeen Microsatellite (SSR) markers and fifteen inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers for the identification of twenty eight ramets of 11 varieties of walnut (Juglans regia) was explored. Thirty nine individual genomes were screened using 61 and 38 scorable fragments from SSR and ISSR markers, respectively. The least polymorphic SSR locus was WGA004 (two alleles) and the most polymorphic (5 alleles) was WGA276. Polymorphism information content values ranged from 0.08 (WGA004) to 0.43 (WGA032) in SSR markers and from 0.11 (AGA (AC)7) to 0.49 (CAC(TGT)5) in ISSR markers, with an average of 0.29 and 0.19, respectively. In most cases, grafted varieties with identical names also had the same microsatellites profile. The principal coordinate analysis and clustering (UPGMA) based on the combined marker set emphasized two failures in grafting or off-types, ramets identified as Serr 4 (S4) and Vina 1 (V1). The presence of two off-type ramets in the walnut research orchard emphasizes the importance of using molecular certification for proving true-to-type of walnut orchards. Using 13 polymorphic SSRs, we tabulated a DNA fingerprint chart of 11 walnut varieties. Except for ‘Chandler’, each cultivar could be distinguished using a combination of only two SSR loci. The 13 SSRs markers evaluated in this study could be used in future to identify clones produced from the varieties.

Three ItalianLoliumweed populations, one susceptible and two resistant to diclofop, were characterized by the technique of inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR). The goal of this study was to taxonomically identify theseLoliumpopulations as well as to evaluate evidence for introgression of ISSR fragments fromFestucaand the potential role of this introgression in the diclofop response. ISSR analysis confirmed the genomic background of the weed populations to be consistent with that ofLolium. However, the great range of variation in ISSR banding patterns highlighted that the three ryegrass accessions are mixed populations made up of individuals resulting presumably from intrageneric and intergeneric hybridization in theLolium–Festucacomplex. TwoFestucagenus-discriminating and 20Festucaspecies-discriminating ISSR markers were screened among all the three ryegrass populations. The resistant Tuscania population carried the highest percentage ofFestucagenome (16.8%) followed by the resistant Roma (13.6%) and susceptible Vetralla (7.6%) populations. On the basis of these data some influence ofFestucagenome in diclofop resistance levels of studied ryegrass populations could be hypothesized.

Genetic diversity of 51 oil-tea camellia germplasms was analyzed using the optimized inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR)–PCR reaction system with 22 primers screened from a set of 100 ISSR primers. The results showed that 493 discernible loci with distinct electrophoretic bands were obtained, of which, 478 loci (96.78%) were polymorphic. This indicated that oil-tea germplasms possess abundant genetic diversities. By clustering analysis performed using softwares of NTSYS 2.10 and Winboot, 51 oil-tea germplasms were divided into two groups: Group I had 48 lines of Camellia oleifera Abel, while Group II had three C. oleifera Abel related species and their similarity coefficient was 0.62. Group I was further divided into Group I-1 and Group I-2, and their similarity coefficient (Gs) was 0.634. All members of Group I-1 originated from Hunan Province, while Group I-2 included the rest of Hunan lines and those originated from other regions of China. Analyzed by software POPGENE 1.32, the Shannon's information index (I*) of genetic polymorphism was 0.3852, the genetic diversity among different region populations (Ht) was 0.2537, the genetic diversity within populations (Hs) was 0.15545, the differentiation coefficient of genetic diversity among populations (Gst) was 0.3967, and the gene flow among populations (Nm*) was 0.8262. The Nei's genetic distances between the Hunan population and the populations originated from other regions of China implied that geographic isolation strongly influenced genetic differentiation among populations. Meanwhile, seedling rootstock grafting and high grafting for tree crown produced genetic variations among clonal offsprings.

AbstractThe alien species Erigeron annuus (L.) Pers. is in an intensive spreading phase in Lithuania. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPDs) and inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) assays were used to study the genetic structure of old and new invasive populations and to determine the most spread genotypes of this species in Lithuania. Pairwise genetic distances between populations established using RAPD and ISSR markers significantly correlated (r=0.91, P<0.05). Our study indicates that there are two genetically different types of E. annuus populations. The first type is represented by a widely spread main clone and related monomorphic populations. The second type is represented by polymorphic populations, some of them present at sites where E. annuus has not been previously observed. Main clone predominates in nine populations and is from the region where this species was first described in natural ecosystems of Lithuania. UPGMA cluster analysis revealed genetic relationships between the main clone and accessions from old cemeteries where E. annuus has been grown as an ornamental plant. We found high genetic differentiation among populations (G ST=0.58 for RAPDs, G ST=0.64 for ISSRs). Taken together, our results will contribute to the monitoring of E. annuus spread in Lithuania.

Comparing between different methods for classifying 12 maize inbred lines to heterotic groups was achieved using general and specific combining ability effects; agronomic traits to the maize inbreds per se; and ISSR-markers. The results of line-tester design showed that Giza656 lines had the highest yield for the cross with Gemmiza 1021 tester (7.20 ton per hectare) at Nubaria, while Giza655 lines had the highest yield for the cross with Gemmiza 1021 tester (8.24 ton per hectare) at Gemmiza. Regarding Heterotic specific and General Combining Abilities, the inbred lines were grouped into three groups as their testers were, but groups differed from Nubaria to Gemmiza locations. The classification due to Inter Simple Sequence Repeats markers have agreement with pedigree data more than the HSGCA and agronomic characters, because the HSGCA method affected by testers, lines, environments, and the interactions between all of them, also, agronomic character method need to plant the inbreds and evaluate them at more locations and more seasons .Furthermore, all these cautions will not discard the environmental effects but they will reduce it to the minimum values. On the other hand, molecular marker will keep time and efforts needed to evaluate the inbred lines.
