Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleReassessment of Molecular Variation in Isolated Populations of Deschampsia cespitosa from Metal Contaminated Regions in Northern Ontario (Canada) after 17 Years of Potential Genetic RecombinationSabrina Rainville, Peter Beckett, Kabwe NkongoloThe effects of ore extraction and processing procedures in the Greater Sudbury and Cobalt regions have been long-lasting. The objective of this study is to determine the current level of genetic variation in Deschampsia cespitosa populations from metal contaminated and uncontaminated sites in samples collected in Northern Ontario in 2016 after 17 years of potential genetic recombination since the last … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 13 Jul 2017 · 7,044 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCOMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF INTER SIMPLE SEQUENCE REPEATS AND SIMPLE SEQUENCE REPEATS MARKERS: GENETIC ANALYSIS OF DESCHAMPSIA CESPITOSA POPULATIONS GROWING IN METAL CONTAMINATED REGIONS IN CANADAK.K. Nkongolo, S. Gervais, P. Michael, Y. ZhouComparative studies conducted on the genetic variation of metal-tolerant populations and their non-metal-tolerant counterparts have been performed on numerous species using isozyme markers. Analysis of genetic differences among plant populations growing in heavy metal-contaminated and uncontaminated regions are limited. The main objectives of the present study were to compare ISSR and microsatellite markers in assessing genetic variation in D. cespitosa … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2014 · 7,286 accessesView PDF Cite
