Abstract:
Infectious bursal disease Virus (IBDV) specific reverse transcriptase/polymerase chain recation (RT/PCR) positive 40 broiler bursa fabricius samples obtained from a commercially reared flock were investigated for genetic diversity by PCR-RFLP assay. The assay amplifies a 743 bp fragment of the IBDV VP2 gene. The RFLP profiles of 40 of these positive samples were determined using the enzyme MboI. Most of the viruses had the same RFLP with the MboI enzyme. RFLP analysis of the isolates produced two different band profiles. The results of this study showed that little genetic heterogeneity exists

Abstract:
Abstract Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) are being used to construct complete linkage maps for many eukaryotic genomes. These RFLP maps can be used to predict the inheritance of important phenotypic loci and will assist in the molecular cloning of linked gene(s) which affect phenotypes of scientific, medical and agronomic importance. However, genetic linkage implies very little about the actual physical distances between loci. An assay is described which uses genetic recombinants to measure physical distance from a DNA probe to linked phenotypic loci. We have defined the subs

Abstract:
A restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP)-based technique was developed to identify members of the sooty blotch and flyspeck (SBFS) disease complex on apple because these fungi are difficult to identify using agar-plate isolation and morphological description. The method includes polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) using a fungal-specific forward primer (ITS1-F) and an SBFS-specific reverse primer (Myc1-R), followed by digestion of the PCR product by the HaeIII restriction enzyme.
