Abstract
The current knowledge about Palestinian safflower landraces is relatively limited in terms of phenotypic and molecular characterization, however, the purpose of this investigation was to determine the amount of genetic diversity in eighteen local safflower landraces using seven DAMD markers. The banding patterns for each primer were scored and compiled into a data matrix. Subsequently, the data matrix was analyzed using UPGMA cluster analysis to identify distinct genetic groups among the landraces. In total, 88 DNA fragments were found, and there were an average of 12.6 loci per assay unit observed. Resolving Power (RP) revealed an average of 7.09 was determined, with the highest RP value at 13.3. The dendrogram obtained from DAMD data divided the landraces into three main clusters, denoted as I, II and III. The first cluster (I) consisted of one genotype (PTUK.SA16). The second cluster (II) consisted of two genotypes (PTUK.SA13 and PTUK.SA10). The third cluster (III) was later partitioned into two distinct sub-clusters, which are III.a and III.b. Sub-cluster III.a comprised seven genotypes (PTUK.SA4, PTUK.SA9, PTUK.SA8, PTUK.SA7, PTUK.SA6, PTUK.SA5 and PTUK.SA3). While Sub-cluster III.b consisted of eight genotypes (PTUK.SA15, PTUK.SA18, PTUK.SA17, PTUK.SA14, PTUK.SA12, PTUK.SA2, PTUK.SA11, and PTUK.SA1). This research assess the genetic diversity of Palestinian safflower landraces using PCR-based DAMD markers. The remarkable level of polymorphism detected using DAMD markers demonstrated their effectiveness in distinguishing between Palestinian safflower genotypes.
期刊介绍:
Biotechnology Letters is the world’s leading rapid-publication primary journal dedicated to biotechnology as a whole – that is to topics relating to actual or potential applications of biological reactions affected by microbial, plant or animal cells and biocatalysts derived from them.
All relevant aspects of molecular biology, genetics and cell biochemistry, of process and reactor design, of pre- and post-treatment steps, and of manufacturing or service operations are therefore included.
Contributions from industrial and academic laboratories are equally welcome. We also welcome contributions covering biotechnological aspects of regenerative medicine and biomaterials and also cancer biotechnology. Criteria for the acceptance of papers relate to our aim of publishing useful and informative results that will be of value to other workers in related fields.
The emphasis is very much on novelty and immediacy in order to justify rapid publication of authors’ results. It should be noted, however, that we do not normally publish papers (but this is not absolute) that deal with unidentified consortia of microorganisms (e.g. as in activated sludge) as these results may not be easily reproducible in other laboratories.
Papers describing the isolation and identification of microorganisms are not regarded as appropriate but such information can be appended as supporting information to a paper. Papers dealing with simple process development are usually considered to lack sufficient novelty or interest to warrant publication.
