Abstract

Twenty-two G. glabra populations were used to study the genetic diversity of ISSR molecular markers. 12 primers were used to amplification of genomic DNA fragments of G. glabra populations. High genetic diversity based on ISSR markers was observed among individuals. A total of 130 bands were formed and 105 bands were polymorphic. The mean polymorphism percentage among studied populations was 80.47. The highest polymorphic percentages were assigned to IS23, IS21, IS9, IS13 and IS15 primers. The mean of PIC and MI were 0.347 and 2.47, respectively. The Shannon index (I) varied between 0.207-0.393 and the Nei genetic variation index (h) from 0.140 to 0.026. Darab and Solataniyeh populations showed the lowest and highest genetic diversity, respectively. The percentage of polymorphic loci was varied between 35.224 to 65.71%. The observe allele number and effective alleles number was 1.46 and 1.34, respectively. Based on the genetic distance Nei, populations Bardsir and Baft had the highest genetic similarity (0.888) and populations Bardsir and Solataniyeh had the least genetic similarity (0.132). The studied populations were grouped into three main groups by cluster analysis using UPGAM and Jaccard's similarity coefficient. The results showed that the ISSR marker is a reliable marker system for revealing a high level of polymorphism and can be used to study genetic diversity and further examinations as a subset of breeding programs in G. glabra.

Abstract

Due to the importance of date palm production in Iran, introduction of new cultivars, improvement of current cultivars and studying the genetic diversity among available cultivars is essential for improvement the quantity and quality of date palm production. In this research, 15 different local genotypes of date palm collected from Saravan, Jalgh, Nahook and Sinokan regions of Sistan and Baluchistan province were used for diversity analysis. To this end, DNA was extracted from leaves using Delaporta method and DNA quality and quantity were determined using spectrophotometer and 1% gel electrophoresis. PCR was performed using specific rbcL primers under determined conditions and the amplicons were sequenced. To study the relationships and genetic distances between genotypes, the results of sequencing were analyzed and dendrogram of phylogenetic relationships as well as sequence similarity matrix were generated using Bioedit, and MEGA7 software. The results of the present study showed that there were a total of 553 different residues for this marker of which 505 residues contained deletion and addition, and 48 residues were without deletion and addition. The genetic distance ranged from 0.0 to 0.037 and the highest intra-regional diversity was related to cultivar Jm13_sabzoo. Based on the dendrogram obtained from cluster analysis, the studied cultivars were divided into two branches, in which the first branch contained cultivar Sabzoo from Jalgh region and the other cultivars were grouped in different sub-branches of second branch. Although the rbcL marker is useful for studying and recognizing diversity of intraspecific relationships, a low genetic distance was estimated for the studied date palm genotypes. However, it is suggested that the other DNA barcodes as well the other appropriate molecular markers could be used for future studies of date palm genetic diversity.

Abstract

Genus Allium L. contains very taxonomically complex sections, especially the subgenus Melanocrommyum. The systematic position of the species in each section has been revised many times over time. In the present study, the relationship between 32 ecotypes belonging to 10 different species of Allium was investigated using ISSR markers. The nine primers used produced 166 polymorphic bands (average 18 bands per primer). Among the primers used, ISSR873 primer with 27 bands made the most, and ISSR4 primer with two bands had the lowest polymorphic bands. The PIC of the markers ranged from 0.04 to 0.43. Cluster analysis by UPGMA method based on molecular markers divided the studied ecotypes into four groups. The clustering and principal coordinate analysis results showed that most morphologically similar species were grouped in closed clusters. According to Dice similarity coefficient, the highest percentage of similarity was shown between Allium stipitatum and Allium saralicum ecotypes (72 percent) from the Melanocrommyum subgenus, and the lowest similarity was obtained between Allium tripedale and Allium iranicum ecotypes (12 percent). The ecotypes with the lowest similarity percentage belong to the subgenus Allium and Nectaroscordum, which are placed in separate clusters. Based on the results, the ecotypes of Pseudoprason, Melanocrommyum, and Procerallium sections showed the highest affinity. In general, it can be concluded that ISSR markers are useful for classifying Allium species and have sufficient potential for phylogenetic studies of species. In addition, due to significant genetic diversity among the studied ecotypes of wild Allium species, this diversity can be used in future breeding programs of crop.

Abstract

Various strategies have been developed to reduce water consumption in rice cultivation, including rice cultivation in water-saturated soil, drying and wetting of the soil (periodic irrigation), and aerobic rice cultivation. In this study, in order to identify and grouping rice cultivars suitable for aerobic cultivation, 34 cultivars of native and improved rice cultivars were selected and evaluated. Factor analysis based on principal components analysis based on all traits showed that 6 factors were extracted with special values of more than one. These 6 factors, after the Varimax rotation, justify the 6 main and independent factors, justifying 78.08% of the total variation. In the first harvest, cluster analysis using WARD method, cultivars were grouped into 4 groups, which cluster 3 being the largest cluster. Discriminant analysis of first harvest, showed that all cultivars were grouped correctly. In canonical discriminant the first two canonical functions with eigenvalues greater than one explained a total of 88.9% of the variance. In cluster analysis based on the average of the data obtained from Raton product, genotypes were divided into two different groups. The genotypes of the first group were higher than the genotypes of the second group in terms of yield and yield components and were introduced as superior genotypes. Heritability with genetic improvement for leaf area duration, number of seedling (grown plants), number of spikes per unit area, number of full seeds and degree of maturity showed that these traits can be transferred to hybrid offspring and selections based on these traits are effective.

Abstract

Henbane has a high medicinal value due to the presence of hyoscyamine and scopolamine alkaloids. Improving the quality and quantity of henbane alkaloids using modern breeding methods requires evaluating the genetic diversity. The genetic diversity of henbane has been investigated using morphological, biochemical and molecular markers in several studies and the superiority of molecular markers over other markers has been proven. To this end, in 2018, the genetic diversity of 96 henbane genotypes collected from the habitats of northwest Iran was investigated using IRAP and REMAP molecular markers. For IRAP markers, out of 36 possible combinations obtained from eight LTR primers, seven combinations had a fine and scalable amplification. In the REMAP technique, the combination of 11 ISSR primers with eight LTR primers was used, and 12 combinations could be scored out of 88 possible combinations. The average amount of polymorphic information for IRAP and REMAP markers was 0.30 and 0.32, respectively, and the average marker index for these two markers was estimated as 2.59 and 2.47. Based on these criteria, REMAP marker was more efficient than IRAP in estimating the genetic diversity of henbane. In the analysis of molecular variance using IRAP and REMAP markers, intra-population variability was estimated to be higher than inter-population, which indicates the high diversity of these populations in northwestern Iran. Cluster analysis based on IRAP marker failed to separate species and populations, but REMAP marker was able to separate H. pusillus and H. reticulatus species to a high degree. A high shannon index in this research suggests that IRAP and REMAP retrotransposon markers resulted in a high genetic diversity within henbane populations with a high insertion in the genome of henbane populations.

Abstract

Luffa (Luffa cylindrica) is a plant from the Cucurbitaceae family that grows mostly in tropical and subtropical regions, as well as in most regions of Iran. In this research, the genetic diversity of nine native and non-native genotypes of L. cylindrica was investigated through the evaluation of the chloroplast trnH-psbA intergenic region (IGS). After sampling the young leaves, DNA extraction was performed by using the Dellaporta method, and PCR was conducted by using IGS intergenic region primers. After sequencing of the amplified products, their quality was determined using Chromas software and then aligned using ClustalW method by BioEdit and MEGA7 softwares. Next, the dendrogram of phylogenic relationships was drawn and the matrix of the difference and similarity of the sequences were determined. In the present research, by analyzing the relationships between studied samples, based on the trnH-psbA (IGS) marker, a strong intraspecies variation was observed in native and non-native L. cylindrical genotypes. The genetic distance matrix between the samples examined in this research ranged from 0 to 6.865 with an overall average distance of 2.53. The average value of synonymous and non-synonymous substitutions (dN/dS) for the IGS sequence was ds/dn = 0.68, which indicates positive and pure line selections in the process of natural selection of studied genotypes. The results of this research showed that trnH-psbA is a suitable marker for evaluation of the intraspecific diversity of luffa species.

Abstract

Tomato is the second important vegetable in the world. Therefore, disclosure the germplasm variation as a precursor for its breeding is highly valuable. The study was conducted to assess the genetic diversity in a collection of tomato germplasm including previously cultivated cultivars, currently being cultivated and promising tomato lines in Iran. Polymorphism analysis between cultivars was performed via 20 CBDP primers. The primers amplified 406 genomic fragments, of which 215 bands showed polymorphism and the average percentage of polymorphism was 51%. The average index of polymorphic information content (PIC) and resolving power (Rp) were estimated as 0.30 and 4.49, respectively, which indicated the relatively appropriate efficiency of the primers' used. The genetic distance between the pairs of studied cultivars according to the Jaccard Coefficient ranged from 0.16 to 0.54 and its average was estimated as 0.38. The lowest and highest genetic distance were observed in Matin and Sana with a value of 0.16 and Hypeel 303 and 693 with a value of 0.54, respectively. Cluster analysis based on the Jaccard distance coefficient and the Neighbor Joining algorithm divided the cultivars into five groups. It is relatively consistence with the results of the analysis to the principal coordinates which showed that the first two components explained 15.04% of the total changes. In conclusion, this research showed that there is to some extent low genetic diversity among the Tomato's cultivars in Iran, while the primers which used revealed the polymorphism between them competently and separated them thoroughly. Based on the indices calculated to evaluate the efficiency of primers, CBDP18 and CBDP12 primers showed better efficiency in differentiating the studied genotypes. Based on these results, the use of diverse genetic resources and development of new varieties is necessary to mitigate vulnerability and the risk of epidemic disease such as fungal pathogens in tomato cultivation.
