Thirteen enzymes （MDH, ME, IDH, GPI, PGM, PEP-LG, PEP-pp, ACP, AK, PK, AAT, SOD, EST） in three butter systems （TC, pH6.9; TMME, pH 7.4; and EBT, pHS.9） were selected and 22 loci were used for the analysis, among them 7 loci （Gpi, Pgm, Pep.m-l, Pep.pp. Aat-2, Est-2, Est-3） were polymorphic which attributed 31.82% to the total. The average of heterozygosity was 0.113 and most of the studied loci showed heterozygote deficiencies. The same specimens were investigated using 10 arbitrarily selected primers （10-base）. Twenty two of 54 RAPD fragments were polymorphic with average heterozygosity of 0.194. The result indicated that the two types of markers reflected a consistent trend in the parameter values of genetic diversity of the population, but RAPD revealed more information of genetic variation than allozyme electrophoresis.展开更多

Twenty operon primers generated informative RAPD patterns and selected for further RAPD analysis. These 20 primers yielded 291 of main bands, out of which 169 were polymorphic bands across tested varieties. Each selected primer produced between 59 bands （OPC-01） to 142 bands （OPX-04）. Amplification products （DNA amplicons） and fragments size ranged from 260 bp （OPT-06） to 2,365 bp （OPP-05）. The largest number of polymorphic bands （20 bands） was produced by primer OPX-04 while, the lowest number of polymorphic bands （1 band） was produced by primer OPA-03. The primers of the most interest of this purpose were those that produced more variety specific DNA profiles, such as OPD-03, OPE-18, OPF-05, OPL-11 and OPX-04. The primer efficiency ranged from 0.20 in primer OPA-12 to 0.01 in primer OPA-03. The highest polymorphism and value of discrimination in this study were obtained with primers OPX-04, while, the lowest polymorphism and value of discrimination were obtained with primers OPA-03. The lowest genetic distance was 0.1941 between varieties Manlcet and Biotech Bag, while, the highest genetic distance was 0.6433 between varieties Pio 3751 and Buhooth 106. Cluster analysis （phylogenetic tree） by UPGMA （unweighted pair-group method of arithmetic means） based dendrogram revealed that they were four main genetic groups. The overall analysis of the results reveals that the genetic relationships among the maize varieties were related to some of their morphological characters as well as to their geographical origins at the molecular genetics.展开更多

This technique is proved to be a quick and effective to establish genetic markers to differentiate morphologically similar populations. During the study cockroach species Periplanata americana and Blatella germanicana were considered. Ten random primers were used for polymerase chain reaction （PCR）. Many of such bands obtained, which differentiate between the two species. On the basis of interpretability, simplicity and reproducibility, six primers P1 （GATGACCGCC）, P3 （GGCACGTAAC）, P6 （GGTGCGCCTT）, P7 （GTCAGAGTCG）, P8 （GTCGCCGTCT） and PI0 （GTGCCCGATG） were considered positive for genetic differentiation and analysis. A series of bands ranging from -300 bp to -1,000 bp obtained indicates that these two species are related, however they exhibit some variations. It has also been observed that the same primers also amplified some DNA fragments of the same size in both the species, which indicates the presence of conserved regions, sharing ancestral relationship. Some of the fragments were unique in both the species which may be used for diagnostic purposes. The study concludes that the RAPD-PCR technique is useful for the study of molecular taxonomy in insects.展开更多
