Insect pests often develop resistance to insecticides, and such resistance represents a serious management problem. Devising methods that concurrently delay resistance and minimize injury by insects to field crops and stored grain has long been a goal of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). A center...

Chloroplast DNA (cp) and nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) variation was investigated in 45 accessions of cultivated and wild Manihot species. Ten independent mutations, 8 point mutations and 2 length mutations were identified, using eight restriction enzymes and 12 heterologous cpDNA probes from mung...

Biotechnology is the name that has been given to a very wide range of agricultural, industrial, and medical technologies that make use of living organisms or parts of organisms to provide new products and services. Although the term refers to much broader technology than genetic engineering, the ...
Sequence analysis of the chromosome region harboring the sequence-tagged site (STS) markers YES3-3A and YES3-3B for Rysto, a gene responsible for extreme resistance to Potato virus Y (PVY) in potato, was performed in tetraploid potato ‘Barbara’ (Rrrr) and ‘AC Chaleur’ (rrrr) as well as their prog...

The extent of genetic diversity and relatedness of cowpea germplasm from East Africa are poorly understood. A set of 13 microsatellites (SSR) and 151 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) markers were applied to assess the levels of genetic diversity in a sample of 95 accessions of local cowpea ...

Theileria parva, an intra-cellular protozoan parasite of cattle, causes a
lymphoproliferative disease called East Coast fever. The parasite genome is
considered to be haploid in both the sporozoite and piroplasm stages of its life cycle
while the schizont stages are polyploid. The piroplasm has f...

In order to characterise the D17MIT16 BAC DNA clone which is part of a 1200 kilobase DNA insert believed to contain mouse trypanotolerance genes, restriction endonucleases were used to digest the insert for restriction mapping, identification of DNA markers, sub cloning and sequencing. The D17MIT...
