“Roveja di Civita di Cascia” is a landrace of Pisum sativum grown in marginal land habitats of the Apennines, Central Italy, and is one of the eleven herbaceous crop landraces listed in the Regional Register of local varieties. The objective of the present paper was to assess its genetic structure using 62 morphological traits and five microsatellites. As many as 55 traits showed significant differences with the control entries (P. sativum subsp. sativum var. arvense and var. sativum). We tested P. sativum Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs) for their transferability to “Roveja”, and found that only 12 out of 35 performed well. Of these, we demonstrated that five were sufficient to assess the genetic structure of this landrace, characterized by several private alleles, differentiating it from Paladio and Bluemoon, which were used as controls. Phenotypic and genotypic data evidenced a genetic structure based on a blend of several pure-bred lines. The sustainability of on-farm landrace conservation is discussed.

Four monosomic alien addition lines (MAALs) for Brassica alboglabra – Brassica campestris were developed through digenomic triploid (ACC) backcrossing with the recurrent parent B. alboglabra (CC). The objectives of this study were to compare morphological traits, microsatellite markers (simple sequence repeats), chromosomal karyotypes, and meiotic behaviors. Based on the new chromosome nomenclature system established for Brassica, we preliminarily identified these MAALs as CC+A1, CC+A3, CC+A6, and CC+A7. Their alien chromosomes were transmittable through both female and male gametes at rates of 11.46%–26.53% and 4.88%–12.90%, respectively.

Abstract This study was carried out to estimate the genetic diversity and relationships of 74 Iranian blackberry genotypes assigned to 5 different species using inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) marker analysis and morphological trait characterization. Sixteen traits including phenological, vegetative and reproductive attributes were recorded, and 10 ISSR primers were screened. Results showed that yield and leaf width have the highest and lowest genetic diversity, (diversity index = 62.57 and 13.74), respectively. Flowering and ripening date recorded as traits having the strongest correlations (r = 0.98). The selected 10 ISSR primers produced a total of 161 amplified fragments (200 to 3500 bp) of which 113 were polymorphic. The highest, lowest and average PIC values were 0.53, 0.38 and 0.44, respectively. Principle component analysis (PCA) based on morphological traits showed that the first six components explained 84.9% of the variations of traits studied, whilst the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) based on ISSR data implied the first eight principal coordinates explained 67.06% of the total variation. Cluster analysis based on morphological traits and ISSR data classified all genotypes into two and three major groups, respectively, and the distribution pattern of genotypes was mainly based on species and the geographic origins.

Molecular markers have been used previously to identify linkages to important traits of interest. In this study two marker types, randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and simple sequence repeats (SSR), were used to find molecular markers linked to two morphological traits in blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus). Thorniness and floricane fruiting are both qualitative, recessive traits that are inherited tetrasomically. A cross of `Prime-Jim'® × `Arapaho' was made to create a population that segregated for the two traits. A random sample of 98 plants from a population of 200 were assayed to find molecular markers that co-segregate with the two traits. Three putative markers were identified for the floricane fruiting trait (two SSRs and one RAPD; χ2 = 4.09 to 9.99, P < 0.001 to 0.043). Five potential RAPD markers were found for the thorny trait (χ2 = 3.88 to 10.23, P < 0.001 to 0.048). Identification of markers linked to these traits could potentially be useful in marker-assisted selection.
