Ottelia acuminata (Gagnep.) Dandy (Hydrocharitaceae), an endangered aquatic species, was investigated in the Eastern Himalayas, especially in Yunnan Province of Southwest China. The genetic diversity among seven populations was examined using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) amplification markers. The field survey showed that 43.5% natural populations of O. acuminata have become extinct during the last 30 years. Among 13 remaining wild populations, eight (61.5%) are on the edge of extinction and only five (38.5%) were unaffected. For the study on seven populations based on ten primers, 147 clear and reproducible DNA fragments were generated, of which 144 (97.96%) were polymorphic. Within populations, however, the polymorphic bands (PPB) generated by ISSRs was 53 and occupied 36.05% in population B, and similarly within population J (51 and 34.69%, respectively). The results showed that genetic variation is much higher among populations of O. acuminata than within populations. Analyses of Nei’s gene diversity, genetic distance and Shannon’s index also agreed with these results. The average value of Nei’s gene diversity (h) equaled 0.3710. The coefficient of genetic differentiation (Gst) equaled 0.5487, which means that 54.87% of the total molecular variance existed among populations. Such a high level of divergence present among populations may be caused by the complex topography and separated habitats which effectively restrict gene flow. Moreover, there is a lack of significant association between genetic and geographical distances (r = 0.28889, P > 0.05) in the populations of O. acuminata. Therefore, we proposed an appropriate strategy for conserving the genetic resources of O. acuminata in the Eastern Himalayas; namely, rescuing and conserving the core populations in situ, while selecting and preserving more populations with fewer individuals from each population ex situ.

Abstract Khasi mandarin (Citrus reticulata Blanco) is a commercial mandarin variety grown in northeast India and one of the 175 Indian food items included in the global first food atlas. The cultivated plantations of Khasi mandarin grown prominently in the lower Brahmaputra valley of Assam, northeast India, have been genetically eroded. The lack in the efforts for conservation of genetic variability in this mandarin variety prompted diversity analysis of Khasi mandarin germplasm across the region. Thus, the study aimed to investigate genetic diversity and partitioning of the genetic variations within and among 92 populations of Khasi mandarin collected from 10 cultivated sites in Kamrup and Kamrup (M) districts of Assam, India, using Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers. The amplification of genomic DNA with 17 ISSR primers yielded 216 scorable DNA amplicons of which 177 (81.94%) were polymorphic. The average polymorphism information content was 0.39 per primer. The total genetic diversity (HT = 0.28 ± 0.03) was close to the diversity within the population (HS = 0.20 ± 0.01). A high mean coefficient of gene differentiation (GST = 0.29) reflected a high level of gene flow (Nm = 1.22), indicating high genetic differentiation among the populations. Analysis of Molecular Variance (AMOVA) showed 78% of intra-population differentiation, 21% among the population and 1% among the districts. The obtained results indicate the existence of a high level of genetic diversity in the cultivated Khasi mandarin populations, indicating the need for preservation of each existing population to revive the dying out orchards in northeast India.

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.

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.

AbstractThe aim of this study is investigation the applicability of SSR and ISSR markers in evaluating the genetic relationships in twenty accessions ofAegilopsandTriticumspecies with D genome in different ploidy levels. Totally, 119 bands and 46 alleles were detected using ten primers for ISSR and SSR markers, respectively. Polymorphism Information Content values for all primers ranged from 0.345 to 0.375 with an average of 0.367 for SSR, and varied from 0.29 to 0.44 with the average 0.37 for ISSR marker. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) revealed that 81% (ISSR) and 84% (SSR) of variability was partitioned among individuals within populations. Comparing the genetic diversity ofAegilopsandTriticumaccessions, based on genetic parameters, shows that genetic variation ofAe. crassaandAe. tauschiispecies are higher than other species, especially in terms of Nei’s gene diversity. Cluster analysis, based on both markers, separated total accessions in three groups. However, classification based on SSR marker data was not conformed to classification according to ISSR marker data. Principal co-ordinate analysis (PCoA) for SSR and ISSR data showed that, the first two components clarified 53.48% and 49.91% of the total variation, respectively. This analysis (PCoA), also, indicated consistent patterns of genetic relationships for ISSR data sets, however, the grouping of accessions was not completely accorded to their own geographical origins. Consequently, a high level of genetic diversity was revealed from the accessions sampled from different eco-geographical regions of Iran.

Abstract Aegilops tauschii, the diploid progenitor of the wheat D-genome, is a valuable genetic resource for wheat breeders. In this study, we compared the efficiency of inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) (as an arbitrary technique) and start codon targeted (SCoT) (as a gene-targeting technique) markers in determining the genetic diversity and population structure of 90 accessions of Ae. tauschii. SCoT markers indicated the highest values for polymorphism information content, marker index and effective multiplex ratio compared to ISSR markers. The total genetic diversity (Ht) and genetic diversity within populations (Hs) parameters were comparably modest for the two marker systems. The results of the analysis of molecular variance showed that the genetic variation within populations was significantly higher than among them (ISSR: 92 versus 8%; SCoT: 88 versus 12%). Furthermore, SCoT markers discovered a high level of genetic differentiation among populations than ISSRs (0.19 versus 0.05), while the amount of gene flow detected by ISSR was higher than SCoT (2.13 versus 8.62). Cluster analysis and population structure of SCoT and ISSR data divided all investigated accessions into two and four main clusters, respectively. Our results revealed that SCoT and ISSR fingerprinting could be used to further molecular analysis in Ae. tauschii and other wild species. The high-genetic variability found in this study also indicates the valuable genetic potential present in the investigated Ae. tauschii germplasm, which could be utilized for future genetic analysis and linkage mapping in breeding programmes.

Genetic Diversity And Structure

Aristolochia delavayi Franch. is an endangered species of the dry hot valleys of the Jinsha River, southwestern China. The genetic diversity and structure of the species and the occurrence of gene flow were investigated with eight inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers and four plastid loci (matK, trnL-trnT, rps4-trnT, and trnC-rpoB). The analysis of ISSR markers indicated that the genetic diversity of the species is relatively high (PPB = 84.71%). Similarly, a high gene diversity of HT = 0.833 was found based on the four plastid loci. It is possible that this species previously maintained a large effective population size and that the current relict distribution of the species is a result of large-scale fragmentation and habitat destruction. The origin of the species at approximately 3.407 million years ago and the ensuing intraspecific divergence are generally consistent with the history of two major glaciations in this region. Conservation measures are urgently needed to increase the genetic diversity and population size of this species through both in- and ex-situ action.

As one of the Florida's state wildflowers, Coreopsis leavenworthii is highly desirable for roadside plantings in all parts of the state. Seeds of this species are being produced by growers. Where should seed be produced for different ecotypes? Where can the seed be used? These are among questions that have arisen in commercial seed production and distribution. To address these questions, it was necessary to assess the levels of genetic diversity. Eleven populations (242 total individuals) were collected from different parts of Florida, grown at one location in central Florida, and observed for morphological variations. North Florida natural populations had more complex leaves, while south Florida natural populations had smaller flowers. Principal component analyses revealed that two of the seven characteristics studied accounted for as much as 88% of the morphological variations observed. Molecular diversity was analyzed by using the fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique and the capillary sequencing system. Four primer combinations detected 320 AFLP fragments, of which 90.6% were polymorphic. The overall genetic diversity in the species was 0.2206 (estimated using AMOVA), of which 77.9% was within populations and 22.1% was among populations. The genetic distance among populations seemed to be loosely correlated with geographical distances. A high level of gene flow was found in several populations. Based on the results, a model has been developed to describe the genetic relationship of Coreopsis leavenworthii populations.

Protection Measures

Investigation on the level and pattern of genetic diversity of 10 natural populations of the endangered species Fraxinus hupehensis using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers was crucial for understanding the structure of the population and assessing the best genetic protection strategies. A total of 180 polymorphic bands with the polymorphic rate of 100.00% were amplified by 14 primers. The genetic diversity at population level (Percentage of polymorphic loci, PPL=64.06; Nei’s gene diversity index, h=0.1519; Shannon’s information index, I=0.2434) was lower than that at species level (PPL= 100.00%, h=0.1833, I=0.3041). Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) demonstrated the low level of the genetic variation occurred between the populations (16.05%). This also can be corroborated by the gene flow (Nm 2.424) and the coefficient of gene differentiation (Gst=0.1710) among populations. Cluster analysis based on the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA) revealed four groups for 10 populations according to Nei’s genetic identity and seven categories for the 196 individuals according to SM values. Furthermore, the endangered mechanism and genetic structure of F. hupehensis were discussed, and appropriate targeted protection measures were proposed based on these findings.   ********* In press - Online First.

Tetraclinis articulata (Vahl) Masters is one of Morocco's most important forest species. It is also found occasionally in Malta and Spain, showing significant adaptability to different bio-climatic conditions. However, the species is being affected by anthropogenic fragmentation, logging and neglect from authorities, which could lead to the irretrievable loss of this resource. In this study, the genetic diversity and genetic structure of ten Moroccan populations of T. articulata were assessed. Fifteen Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers were used. These generated 271 polymorphic fragments with an average of 18.06 per primer and showed 79.59% of polymorphism. The 129 individuals revealed a high level of genetic diversity (Hs = 0.221; Ht = 0.254) and 85% of genetic variation within populations. However, the genetic differentiation level was low (Gst = 0.13), which is consistent with the lack of correlation between genetic and geographic distances revealed by the Mantel test, resulting in a high level of gene flow (Nm = 3.294). Based on PCoA and neighbour-joining methods, the ten populations clustered under the effect of continental and marine climates. Compared with other conifers, the current genetic diversity and the pattern of T. articulata population structure indicate an important gene pool requiring efficient conservation strategies.

Stephanie Kwangsiensis H. S. Lo and Salvia prionitis Hance were two rare and valuable Chinese herbs. Genetic diversity of the two plants were studied by using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers after they were transplantation and tissue culture. Results indicated that Nei’s gene diversity (H), Shannon’s information index (I), the percentage of polymorphic loci (PPL) of source / transplantation / tissue culture materials of S. Kwangsiensis H. S. Lo were H=0.282 / 0.195/ 0.056, I=0.415 / 0.290 / 0.087, PPL=75.6% / 56.1% /19.5% based on RAPDs and H=0.295 / 0.292 / 0.111, I=0.445 / 0.435 / 0.166, PPL=85.3% / 85.3% / 32.8% based ISSRs. And the same parameters of source / transplantation / tissue culture materials of S. prionitis Hance were H=0.193 / 0.192 / 0.231, I=0.291 / 0.289 /0.347, PPL=57.8% / 57.2% / 68.6% based on RAPDs and H=0.217 / 0.217 / 0.155, I=0.327 / 0.326 /0.235, and PPL=64.2% / 64.2% / 49.1% based on ISSRs instead. For the transplanted materials, genetic diversity was slightly declining with the disappearance of adversity. And for the tissue culture materials, more genets sampled for tissue culture, less reduction of genetic diversity; and fewer genets sampled, more reduction of genetic diversity. In addition, high genetic diversity appearing in tissue culture materials of S. prionitis Hance partially generate from somatic mutations. And these mutations maybe related to RAPD-PCR regions and just had been checked out by RAPDs.
