Aim of study: To evaluate genetic variability and population structure of C. lindemuthianum isolates in Turkey and to record the reactions of some common bean cultivars to the pathogen isolates representing different genetic groups.Area of study: The study was performed in seven provinces of Turkey.Material and methods: Genetic diversity of 91 C. lindemuthianum isolates obtained from different provinces of Turkey was characterized by 27 iPBS and 30 ISSR primers. Also, the resistance of 40 common bean cultivars was scored against three isolates representing different genetic groups.Main results: The dendrogram based on the combined dataset of iPBS and ISSR markers classified the isolates into two main groups with a genetic similarity of 72%, which closely associated with the geographic distribution of the isolates. The dendrogram of Nei’s genetic distances and Structure analysis supported the clustering of C. lindemuthianum isolates according to the geographical provinces. The results indicated that high level of genetic diversity (GST= 0.4) and low level of gene flow (NM=0.748) exist among the populations. AMOVA analysis showed that 58.7% of total genetic variability resulted from genetic differences between the isolates within populations, while 41.29% was among populations. Four cultivars showed resistant reaction to three isolates, while the other cultivars were susceptible to at least one isolate.Research highlights: The results indicated that iPBS and ISSR markers were reliable and effective tools for analyzing population structure of C. lindemuthianum and revealed high level of genetic and pathogenic diversity among pathogen populations in Turkey.

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.

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.

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.

<p>O conhecimento da diversidade genética das espécies amazônicas é de grande importância para a domesticação e melhoramento das culturas. Uma das grandes dificuldades em espécies não domesticadas como o camu-camu é a falta de informação sobre a sua variabilidade genética. Devido ao potencial econômico do camu-camu por sua alta produção de vitamina C, foi realizado o presente trabalho, o qual tem como objetivo estimar a variabilidade genética de 139 acessos de camu-camu oriundos de 17 populações de diferentes rios da Amazônia brasileira, conservados no banco de germoplasma (BAG) de camu-camu do Instituto Nacional de Pesquisa da Amazônia INPA na cidade de Manaus, utilizando marcadores EST-SSR. Oito loci de EST-SSR detectaram um total de 102 alelos com uma média de 12,87 alelos por loco. Os resultados mostram altos níveis de diversidade para todos os locicom uma média de heterozigosidade esperada (H<sub>e</sub>) de 0,797 e heterozigosidade total (H<sub>t</sub>) de 0,502. As populações apresentaram altos valores de endogamia, o que sugere déficit de heterozigotos como observado pelos baixos valores de Heterozigosidade observada (H<sub>0</sub>), provavelmente devido ao isolamento das populações e as distâncias entre elas, o que limita o fluxo gênico favorecendo a endogamia. O valor de diferenciação genética (F<sub>ST</sub>) foi alto 0,21 indicando uma alta variabilidade entre as populações. As medidas baseadas nas freqüências alélicas, amostraram uma maior variabilidade dentro das populações (80,3%) que entre as populações (19,7%). Através das distâncias genéticas entre as populações foi encontrada uma grande variação entre os acessos provenientes de populações de Rondônia (Jarú) e os provenientes de Amazonas (Pirarucu e Tarumã) e Roraima (Urubu). No ordenamento pelo método UPGMA, observou-se a formação de dois grupos principais e cinco sub-grupos os quais estão relacionados geograficamente. Os resultados revelaram a utilidade dos marcadores EST-SSR nos estudos de diversidade genética entre acessos do camu-camu. Estes resultados serão úteis no planejamento de novas coletas e conservação do BAG, no analise de variabilidade de populações, assim como no direcionamento de cruzamentos através da escolha de genótipos geneticamente divergentes, o que contribuirá às atividades de melhoramento de camu-camu nos paises amazônicos.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Genetic diversity of the INPA germoplasm bank of camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia [H.B.K.] McVaugh) using microsatellites markers (EST-SSR).</strong><strong></strong></p><p>The knowledge of genetic diversity in Amazonian species is of great importance for domestication and breeding purposes. A great difficulty with non-domesticated species such as “camu-camu” is the lack of information about their genetic variability. Due to the economic potential of camu-camu, a fruit with a high level of vitamin C production, the aim of this study was to estimate the genetic diversity using the molecular markers EST-SSR, to study the genetic variability of 139 accessions from 17 “camu-camu” materiales from different rivers in the Brazilian's Amazon region, preserved at the INPA (Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia Brasilera) Active Germoplasm Bank (BAG) of “camu-camu” in Manaus. Eight of the EST-SSR polimorfic loci used had 102 alleles detected with an average of 12.87 alleles per locus. The results show high levels of diversity for all loci with an average expected heterocygocity (H<sub>e</sub>) of 0.797 and a total heterocygocity (H<sub>t</sub>) value of 0.502. Populations had high inbreeding values, suggesting a heterocigotes deficiency as observed by the heterocigocity (H<sub>0</sub>), perhaps as result of the great distance and isolation among populations, which limits gene flow and favors inbreeding. A high genetic differentiation value (F<sub>ST</sub>) of 0.21, indicates high variability among populations. Measures based on the alleles frequency, showed a larger variability within populations (80.3%) than among populations (19.7%). Genetic distances between populations showed high differences within accessions coming from Rondonia (Jaru) and those from Amazonas (and Pirarucu Tarumã) and Roraima (Urubu). The dendogram made by the UPGMA method, showed two major groups and five subgroups related geographically. Results proved EST-SSR marker's utility in genetic diversity studies among BAG of camu-camu. These results will be useful in planning new collections, germplasm conservation and population variability analysis, as well as directional crossover using divergent genotypes; which will contribute to camu-camu breeding in Amazonian countries. </p>

Abstract Background Silybum marianum L. Gaertn is a medicinal plant of unique pharmaceutical properties in the treatment of liver disorders and diabetic nephropathy. Biochemical (SDS-PAGE) and molecular markers such as randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) technologies were used in this work to detect genetic diversity of 14 collections of Silybum marianum population in Egypt. Results The electrophoretic pattern of seed protein gave different molecular weight bands, ranging from 24 to 111 KDa with the presence of unique bands. RAPD results revealed a high level of polymorphism (73.2%) using 12 RAPD primers, but only eight of them gave reproducible polymorphic DNA pattern. Sixteen primers were used in the ISSR method; only ten of them yielded clearly identifiable bands. The percentage of polymorphism is about 80% of the studied samples. Conclusion The obtained data confirmed that SDS-protein, RAPD, and ISSR markers are important tools for genetic analysis for Silybum marianum and recommended to give accurate results.

Rice stripe virus (RSV) is one of the most economically important pathogens of rice and is repeatedly epidemic in China, Japan and Korea. The most recent outbreak of RSV in eastern China in 2000 caused significant losses and raised serious concerns. In this paper, we provide a genotyping profile of RSV field isolates and describe the population structure of RSV in China, based on the nucleotide sequences of isolates collected from different geographical regions during 1997–2004. RSV isolates could be divided into two or three subtypes, depending on which gene was analysed. The genetic distances between subtypes range from 0.050 to 0.067. The population from eastern China is composed only of subtype I/IB isolates. In contrast, the population from Yunnan province (southwest China) is composed mainly of subtype II isolates, but also contains a small proportion of subtype I/IB isolates and subtype IA isolates. However, subpopulations collected from different districts in eastern China or Yunnan province are not genetically differentiated and show frequent gene flow. RSV genes were found to be under strong negative selection. Our data suggest that the most recent outbreak of RSV in eastern China was not due to the invasion of new RSV subtype(s). The evolutionary processes contributing to the observed genetic diversity and population structure are discussed.
