Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Fusarium Oxysporum F. Sp. Cubense of BananaS. K. Leong, Z. Latiffah, S. BaharuddinProblem statement: Morphological characterization of Fusarium species which emphasize on microscopic and cultural characteristics are not sufficient to characterize Fusarium Oxysporum F. sp. Cubense (FOC) from banana as these characteristics could easily influence by environmental factors. As an alternative molecular methods were used to characterize and to assess genetic variation of FOC from different banana cultivars. Knowledge on the genetic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 9,267 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Opium Poppy (Papaver somniferum) GermplasmHari Shanker Acharya, Vimal SharmaProblem statement: The medicinal value of opium poppy (2n = 22, Papaver somniferum L.) is due to presence of more than two dozen alkaloids. The genetic origin and diversity of cultivars used in the breeding collection is not fully known. To evaluate the genetic diversity of the 24 germplasm currently cultivated in the state to provide genetic information about heterogeneity, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduction of Embryogenic Callus and Plant Regeneration in Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.)Omid KaramiIn this study, efficient plant regeneration through somatic embryogenesis is achieved in four cultivars of carnation (Nelson, Sagres, Spirit and Impulse). Embryogenic calli were induced on petal explants only, all the calli established on leaf, sepal, receptacle and style explants were not embryogenic. Embryogenic calli were obtained on Morashige and Skoog basal medium (1962) containing sucrose 9%, 2.0 mg L-1 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariations in Four Genotypes of Lentil under NaCl-Salinity StressM. Sidari, C. Santonoceto, U. Anastasi et al.Four lentil cultivars, Eston (E), Rossa of Castelluccio (RC), Pantelleria (P) and Ustica (U) differing in salt sensitivity, were examined for osmolyte contents and activities of α-amylase, β-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes involved in seed germination, in absence as well as in presence of 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM NaCl. The inhibitory effects of NaCl differed, depending on the genotypes … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStomatal Resistance to Low Leaf Water Potential at Different Growth Stages Affects Plant Biomass in Glycine max L.F.B. Adejare, C.E. UmebeseTwo cultivars of Glycine max (L) Merril. (TGX536-02D and TGX 923-2E designated cv.A and cv.B respectively), were subjected to water stress for a period of 7 days at the vegetative (T2), flowering/fruiting (T3) and seed development (T4) stages of growth, with a control (T1). Stress was considered moderate at T2 stage (ψw : -1.53 to -1.57 MPa) and severe at … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,349 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChanges in Erucic Acid Concentration of Rape Seeds in Advanced GenerationsSelim Aytaç, Şahin Gizlenci, Mustafa Acar, Ali ÜstünThis study was carried out to determine the extend of changes in erucic acid concentration of rapeseeds which were grown in Carsamba and Bafra Plains of Central Blacksea Region. In addition to field experiments, the same experiment was conducted in the greenhouse to avoid polen transfer from other sources. The first material used was 00 type rapeseed cultivars. In order … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,626 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping QTLs Linked to Physio-Morphological and Plant Production Traits under Drought Stress in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) in the Target EnvironmentS. Michael Gomez, S. Satheesh Kumar, P. Jeyaprakash et al.Drought stress is a major constraint for rice (Oryza sativa L.) production and yield stability in rainfed ecosystems. Identifying genomic regions (QTLs) contributing in drought resistance will help to develop rice cultivars suitable for water-limiting environments through marker-assisted breeding. QTLs linked to physio-morphological and plant production traits under drought stress in the field were mapped by evaluating 177 F6 recombinant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 14,471 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Banana (AA) Diploids with Contrasting Levels of Black and Yellow Sigatoka ResistanceClaudia Fortes Ferreira, Sebastiao Oliveira Silva, Nivia Paula Damasceno Sobrinho et al.Most banana cultivars are susceptible to many diseases, whereas Sigatoka leads to greatest yield losses. One of the strategies to overcome this disease is thorough banana genetic breeding which consists in the obtainment of improved (AA) diploids which are then crossed with triploids obtaining (AAAB) tetraploid disease resistant bananas also presenting other important agronomic characteristics. The prior knowledge of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
