Background: Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) is a highly nutritious, tannin-containing, and tetraploid forage legume. Due to the lack of detailed transcriptomic and genomic information on this species, genetic and breeding projects for sainfoin improvement have been significantly hindered. Methods: In this study, a total of 24,630,711 clean reads were generated from 14 different sainfoin tissues using Illumina paired-end sequencing technology and deposited in the NCBI SRA database (SRX3763386). From these clean reads, 77,764 unigene sequences were obtained and 6,752 EST-SSRs were identified using denovo assembly. A total of 2,469 primer pairs were designed, and 200 primer pairs were randomly selected to analyze the polymorphism in five sainfoin wild accessions. Results: Further analysis of 40 sainfoin individuals from the five wild populations using 61 EST-SSR loci showed that the number of alleles per locus ranged from 4 to 15, and the expected heterozygosity varied from 0.55 to 0.91. Additionally, by counting the EST-SSR band number and sequencing the three or four bands in one sainfoin individual, sainfoin was confirmed to be autotetraploid. This finding provides a high level of information about this plant. Discussion: Through this study, 61 EST-SSR markers were successfully developed and shown to be useful for genetic studies and investigations of population genetic structures and variabilities among different sainfoin accessions.

The experiment was conducted to assess the available genetic variability amongst Indian Basmati rice and identify co-dominant and reproducible robust simple sequence repeat markers for drought resistance and their utilization in marker assisted selection for developing drought resistant / tolerant aromatic rice cultivars in various parts of India as well as in world. DNA was isolated from fresh and young leaf tissues of 35 cultivars of basmati rice using the CTAB procedure of Doyle and Doyle with slightly modifications. The DNA was further quantified by spectrophotometer at 260 nm and 280 nm. The quality and quantity of DNA were checked by agarose gel electrophoresis. Out of 60 SSR markers, 18 were found to be polymorphic and the rest 42 primers were monomorphic. One of the main purposes of SSR markers in genomic study is the characterization of genetic resources to help gene bank management. The informative (18) SSR markers were capable to discriminate the entire cultivars of basmati rice used in this research work. A total of 52 alleles at 18 loci could be scored. The allelic richness per locus diversified from 2 to 5 with an average of 2.89 alleles per locus. The amplitude of Polymorphism Information Content (PIC) value is 0.066 (RM 1068) to 0.730 (RM 1059) with an average of 0.505. The Jaccard’s similarity coefficient ranged from 0.79 to 0.95. Polymorphic finding content showed a positive correlation (r =0.69) with number of alleles at the SSR locus. However it is recommended that SSR markers can be efficiently utilized for this purpose. The maximum similarity coefficient was observed between Jeerakasab and Kalanamak with a coefficient value of 95% and the minimum similarity was found between Jeerakasab and Pusa basmati-1 with a coefficient value of 79%.
