The genetic variability of Froriepia subpinata Ledeb. Bail., an endangered Iranian endemic species, has been estimated with a total of 52 accessions using 20 markers including ISSR and IRAP. The results showed the polymorphic band produced by primers was 82.3%. The best mean values of genetic diversity parameters observed in ISSRs markers, being UBC873, UBC811, and UBC873 the best primers tested. The similarity range among accessions was 34.45% to 93.3%. The cluster analysis classified the accessions into five main groups that in totally, accessions with similarity in region generally were clustered in the same group.

The genetic variability of Pantesco and other two Sicilian autochthonous donkey breeds (Ragusano and Grigio Siciliano) was assessed using a set of 14 microsatellites. The main goals were to describe the current differentiation among the breeds and to provide genetic information useful to safeguard the Pantesco breed as well as to manage Ragusano and Grigio Siciliano. In the whole sample, that included 108 donkeys representative of the three populations, a total of 85 alleles were detected. The mean number of alleles was lower in Pantesco (3.7), than in Grigio Siciliano and Ragusano (4.4 and 5.9, resp.). The three breeds showed a quite low level of gene diversity (He) ranging from 0.471 in Pantesco to 0.589 in Grigio. The overall genetic differentiation index (Fst) was quite high; more than 10% of the diversity was found among breeds. Reynolds’ () genetic distances, correspondence, and population structure analysis reproduced the same picture, revealing that, (a) Pantesco breed is the most differentiated in the context of the Sicilian indigenous breeds, (b) within Ragusano breed, two well-defined subgroups were observed. This information is worth of further investigation in order to provide suitable data for conservation strategies.

Puya raimondii, the giant Peruvian and Bolivian terrestrial bromeliad, is an emblematic endemic Andean species well represented in Huascarán National Park in Peru. This park is the largest reserve of puna (high altitude plateau) vegetation. The objective of this study is to report on genetic variation in populations of P. raimondii from Huascarán and neighboring areas. AFLP profiles with four selective primer combinations were retrieved for 60 individuals from different zones. Genetic variability was estimated and a total of 172 bands were detected, of which 79.1% were polymorphic loci. The results showed genetic differentiation among populations, and gene flow. A cluster analysis showed that individuals of P. raimondii populations located in different mountain systems could be grouped together, suggesting long distance dispersal. Thus, conservation strategies for P. raimondii have to take into account exchange between populations located far apart in distance in order to preserve the genetic diversity of this showy species.

The reintroduction of the extinct beluga sturgeon (Huso huso L.), an anadromous species with economic and traditional relevance, is a priority in next conservation strategies in Northern Italy. The EU-LIFE NATURA project aims to reintroduce the beluga sturgeon in the Po River basin through a captive breeding program. Critical requirements for the success of the program are river connectivity and knowledge of genetic diversity of the selected broodstocks to ensure self-sustainability of reintroduced populations. Here, the four broodstocks used for the reintroduction of beluga sturgeon have been genetically screened, genotyping 13 loci and sequencing mitochondrial DNA cytochrome b (Cyt b) gene and the entire mitochondrial DNA control region (D-Loop). The four broodstocks showed a medium-high level of nuclear genetic variability and the presence of two sub-populations, evidencing a total level of inbreeding coefficients able to sustain the good potential as future breeders. Mitochondrial analyses showed a genetic variability comparable to wild populations, further strengthening the positive potential of the investigated broodstock. Therefore, this study, showed how the degree of genetic diversity found within the four broodstocks used for H. huso reintroduction in the Po River basin could be suitable to ensure the success of the program, avoiding the inbreeding depression associated with founder effect and captive breeding.

<p>Rodent tuber (Typhonium flagelliforme Lodd.) is a plant from Araceae family. The plant has high medical potential as anti-cancer agent. The information regarding Indonesian rodent tuber’s genetic diversity is not available yet. Genetic information is very important for the development of rodent tuber as medicinal plant. In this research, genetic diversity and genetic distance of three Indonesian rodent tuber’s cultivars, from Bogor, Pekalongan, and Medan, were analyzed by using RAPD molecular markers. The data obtained was analyzed by NTsys software. Out of 16 primers used in the study, the 12 primers were found to be polymorphic. There were 83 bands of DNA obtained and 31 of them were polymorphic. Dendogram analysis of the three rodent tuber cultivars showed that these cultivars were clustered into two clusters. The first cluster consists of rodent tuber Bogor and Medan. The second cluster consists of rodent tuber Pekalongan. The coefficient of similarity ranged from 0.81 to 0.87. The highest coefficient of similarity was 0.87, which was detected between rodent tuber Pekalongan and Medan. The lowest coefficient of similarity was 0.81, which was detected between rodent tuber Bogor and Pekalongan. Among these three cultivars of rodent tuber, cultivar Bogor was exclusively different.</p><p><br /><strong>Keywords</strong>: Indonesia-rodent tuber, genetic diversity, RAPD-marker</p>

The DNA fingerprinting methodologies, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR), were used to estimate genetic diversity and relationships among 20 black gram (Vigna mungo L. Hepper) varieties. Thirty selected RAPD primers amplified 255 bands, 168 of which were polymorphic (66.5%). On average, these primers produced 8.5 bands, 5.6 of which were polymorphic. Polymorphic band number varied from 2 (A-05) to 10 (OPA-02), with sizes ranging from 100 to 2550 bp. Twenty-four selected ISSR primers produced 238 amplified products, 184 of which were polymorphic (77.8%). On average, these primers generated 9.8 bands, with 7.7 polymorphic bands ranging in number from 4 (ISSR-13) to 11 (ISSR-03), and size from 100-2650 bp. Genetic relationships were estimated using similarity coefficient (Jaccard’s) values between different accession pairs; these varied from 30.7 to 85.0 for RAPD, and from 37.2 to 88.4 with ISSR. UPGMA analysis indicated that the varieties ranged in similarity from 0.50 to 1.00 (mean of 0.75) for RAPD, and from 0.47 to 1.00 (mean of 0.76) with ISSR. Cluster analysis of RAPD and ISSR results identified three clusters with significant bootstrap values, which revealed greater homology between the varieties. Principal coordinates analysis also supported this conclusion. Among the black gram varieties, WBU-108 and RBU-38 were highly divergent, whereas LBG-648 and LBG-623 were genetically similar. The markers generated by RAPD and ISSR assays can provide practical information for the management of genetic resources and these results will also provide useful information for the molecular classification and breeding of new black gram varieties.Key words: Black gram, cluster analysis, genetic diversity, ISSR, molecular markers, RAPD
