Application of molecular markers on genetic improvement and reproduction in the post-genomic Era: Emerging biotechnologies and perspectives in livestock
(2010-12-01)
Background: New challenges are rising in the animal protein market, and one of the main world challenges is to produce more in shorter time, with better quality and in a sustainable way. Brazil is the largest beef exporter ...
Morphologic and molecular characterization of Myrciaria spp species
(Sociedade Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2005-12-01)
A jabuticabeira é considerada uma das fruteiras mais típicas do Brasil. Entretanto, há poucos estudos sobre esta planta na literatura, e mesmo sua classificação botânica é muito controvertida. Este trabalho faz comparações ...
Associations of FASN gene polymorphisms with economical traits in Nellore cattle (Bos primigenius indicus)
(Springer, 2012-12-01)
The aim of this study was to identify molecular markers to be applied to marker-assisted selection. Three SNPs of the FASN gene were studied. PCR-RFLP was used for genotyping. The SNPs g.17924A > G, g.17860C > T and g.15603A ...
Screening of genomic libraries
(2013-05-10)
Microsatellites, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), have proven to be an important molecular marker in plant genetics and breeding research. The main strategies to obtain these markers can be through genomic DNA and from ...
5S rDNA characterization in twelve Sciaenidae fish species (Teleostei, Perciformes): depicting gene diversity and molecular markers
(Sociedade Brasileira de Genética, 2008-01-01)
In order to extend the genetic data on the Sciaenidae fish family, the present study had the purpose to characterize PCR-generated 5S rDNA repeats of twelve species of this group through PAGE (Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis) ...
DEVELOPMENT of MICROSATELLITE MARKERS FOR PIMENTA PSEUDOCARYOPHYLLUS (MYRTACEAE), A WILD SOUTH AMERICAN SPECIES
(Botanical Soc Amer Inc, 2012-11-01)
Premise of the study: We developed the first set of microsatellite markers for Pimenta pseudocaryophyllus to support further studies on genetic diversity and to inform conservation strategies.Methods and Results: The ...
Development and characterization of polymorphic microsatellite markers for the sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck)
(Sociedade Brasileira de Genética, 2006-01-01)
The aims of this study were to develop simple sequence repeat markers (SSRs or microsatellite markers) in citrus and to evaluate the efficiency of these markers for characterization of sweet orange. We developed SSRs from ...
Molecular diagnostic methods for identifying Serrasalmid fish (Pacu, Pirapitinga, and Tambaqui) and their hybrids in the Brazilian aquaculture industry
(Elsevier B.V., 2011-11-16)
Hybrids of fish obtained by crossing commercial species of the family Serrasalmidae (Pacu, Pirapitinga, and Tambaqui) have been produced on a large scale by the Brazilian aquaculture industry. However, because juvenile ...
Genetic diversity analysis in the section Caulorrhizae (genus Arachis) using microsatellite markers
(Sociedade Brasileira de Genética, 2010-01-01)
Diversity in 26 microsatellite loci from section Caulorrhizae germplasm was evaluated by using 33 accessions of A. pintoi Krapov. & W.C. Gregory and ten accessions of Arachis repens Handro. Twenty loci proved to be polymorphic ...
Marcadores fAFLP na caracterização de três genótipos de umezeiro selecionados como porta-enxertos para pessegueiro
(Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (EMBRAPA), 2007-12-01)
O objetivo deste trabalho foi caracterizar a diversidade genética existente em três genótipos de umezeiro (Clone 05, cv. Rigitano e Clone 15) e identificar marcadores moleculares fAFLP (fluorescent Amplified Fragment Lenght ...
