    Rosa

    Presently, about 100–250 species are usually recognized in the genus Rosa. The low levels of DNA sequence divergence found across the genus suggest that it is a young genus with much speciation taking place after...

    Frequent silencing of rDNA loci on the univalent-forming genomes contrasts with their stable expression on the bivalent-forming genomes in polyploid dogroses (Rosa sect. Caninae)

    The polyploid species in Rosa section Caninae (2n=21, 28 or 35) are characterized by an unusual reproductive system known as odd (or asymmetric) meiosis. Only two chromosome sets form bivalents in meiosis, wherea...

    The asymmetric meiosis in pentaploid dogroses (Rosa sect. Caninae) is associated with a skewed distribution of rRNA gene families in the gametes

    In pentaploid dogroses, Rosa section Caninae (2n=5x=35), the pollen transmits one basic genome (x=7) derived from the seven segregating bivalents, whereas the egg transmits four basic genomes (4x=28) one set deri...

    RAPD-based Analysis of Genetic Diversity and Selection of Lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea L.) Material for ex situ Conservation

    Random amplified polymorphic DNA markers were used to assess relatedness and genetic diversity for 15 lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea) populations. Seven primers yielding 59 polymorphic bands were used to anal...

    Assignment of allelic configuration in polyploids using the MAC-PR (microsatellite DNA allele counting—peak ratios) method

    Polysomic inheritance frequently results in the simultaneous occurrence of several microsatellite DNA alleles on a single locus. The MAC-PR (microsatellite DNA allele counting—peak ratios) method was recently ...

    Microsatellite DNA marker inheritance indicates preferential pairing between two highly homologous genomes in polyploid and hemisexual dog-roses, Rosa L. Sect. Caninae DC.

    According to previous cytological evidence, the hemisexual dog-rose species, Rosa sect. Caninae, transmit only seven chromosomes (derived from seven bivalents) through their pollen grains, whereas egg cells conta...

    Combined analyses of RAPDs, cpDNA and morphology demonstrate spontaneous hybridization in the plant genus Chaenomeles

    Evidence of spontaneous hybridization between two partially sympatric species of Chaenomeles, C. cathayensis and C. speciosa, has been obtained through analysis of offspring families from these two species, as we...

    Morphological and RAPD markers show a highly skewed distribution in a pair of reciprocal crosses between hemisexual dogrose species, Rosa sect. Caninae

     The dogroses, Rosa sect. Caninae, are polyploid and characterized by their unique meiosis with an unequal number of chromosomes in the male and female gametes. The pollen cells have 7 chromosomes and the egg cel...
