Molecular genetic diversity in the Turkish national melon collection and selection of a preliminary core set
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2013-01)
Turkey is a secondary center of diversity for melon (Cucumis melo) and is home to a variety of regional morphotypes. This diversity is housed in a national germplasm repository with more than 500 accessions. Molecular ...
Genetic diversity of Turkish olive varieties assessed by simple sequence repeat and sequence-related amplified polymorphism markers
(Crop Science Society of America, 2011-07)
Olive (Olea europaea L.) is one of the most important and characteristic fruit crops of the Mediterranean region. This crop has been grown in Turkey for more than 3000 yr and many varieties are currently grown in five ...
Genetic relationships among Eurasian Puccinellia distans genotypes
(Elsevier, 2015-10)
Puccinellia distans (Jacq.) Parl. is a common grass species found throughout the world. It can grow in arid and saline environments as well as under toxic boron concentrations. In this work we performed sequence related ...
High-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) identification and mapping in the sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) genome with genotyping by sequencing (GBS) analysis
(Springer, 2016-12-01)
Sesame (Sesamum indicum L. syn. Sesamum orientale L.) is considered to be the first oil seed crop known to man. Despite its versatile use as an oil seed and a leafy vegetable, sesame is a neglected crop and has not been a ...
Molecular genetic diversity of the Turkish national hazelnut collection and selection of a core set
(Springer, 2017-10)
European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is an economically and nutritionally important nut crop with wild and cultivated populations found throughout Europe and in parts of Asia. This study examined the molecular genetic ...
Barcode DNA length polymorphisms vs fatty acid profiling for adulteration detection in olive oil
(Elsevier, 2017-04)
The aim of this study was to compare the performance of a DNA-barcode assay with fatty acid profile analysis to authenticate the botanical origin of olive oil. To achieve this aim, we performed a PCR-capillary electrophoresis ...
Exploration of three Solanum species for improvement of antioxidant traits in tomato
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2014-08)
Wild tomato species have been widely used for improvement of tomato disease resistance but have not been extensively explored for health-related traits. In this work, three interspecific populations derived from backcrosses ...
Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis for antioxidant and agronomically important traits in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum)
(TÜBİTAK, 2011)
Tomato is one of the most widely produced and consumed vegetable crops worldwide. Plant breeders have usually focused on improvement of horticulturally important traits such as yield, fruit size, shape and colour. With ...
Development of a SNP-based CAPS assay for the Me1 gene conferring resistance to root knot nematode in pepper
(Springer, 2015-11-01)
Root knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are significant agricultural pests on many crops, including pepper (Capsicum annuum). Host plant resistance offers the most sustainable means of controlling this pest. A cluster of ...
Morphological and molecular diversity in Turkish sesame germplasm and core set selection
(Crop Science Society of America, 2015)
The conservation of plant germplasm is essential to ensure future breeding gains and crop bio-diversity. To be truly useful, such germplasm must be characterized for morphological traits and genetic diversity. In this work, ...
