Viruses causing severe mosaic, epinasty, defoliation, and premature death of Passiflora spp. were isolated from west central Colombia. Western blot analyses indicated the presence of potyviruses. Two Colombian isolates (COL-22 and -GR) were compared to known potyviruses as to host range, symptoma...

The Amazon river dolphin, genus Inia, is endemic to the major river basins of northern South America. No previous studies have focused on the genetic structure of this genus. In this work, 96 DNA samples from specimens of this genus were collected in the Orinoco basin (four rivers), the Putumayo ...

Conventional banana breeding for pest and disease resistance is a very difficult and slow process due to the limited sources of resistance, sterility of cultivated banana varieties, high polyploidy levels, long cropping cycle and the lack of rapid screening methods.Molecular breeding using the tr...

Bioversity International's 'Seeds for Needs' initiative works with farmers to research how agricultural biodiversity can help minimize the risks associated with climate change. The concept is simple – if farmers have better information and access to a wide range of varieties, they are more able t...

In October 1995, IPGRI organized a small workshop on the use of molecular techniques in the conservation of plant genetic resources. One area of discussion was the considerable range of different molecular techniques available and the ways in which they could best be used. Deciding on which techn...

Molecular tools in plant genetic resources conservation: A guide to the technologies
The last few years have seen a dramatic increase in the application of molecular genetic methods to problems relevant to the conservation and use of plant genetic resources. A variety of different methods for detecting and analyzing variation at the molecular level are now available and offer to ...
