In the last two decades, several genetic studies about phylogenetics and genetic diversity of Fagaceae have emerged. ISSR markers were used to evaluate the genetic diversity of 26 species of Fagaceae belonging to the genera Castanea, Fagus and Quercus. Among several primers tested, 17 were selected for the evaluation of diversity and estimation of genetic relationships. A total of 371 ISSR markers were produced and each primer revealed high polymorphism. Specific ISSR markers for the Quercus infrageneric groups were amplified. ISSRs proved to be a reliable tool for the discrimination of the analyzed species per genus, infrageneric group and/or ecological origin.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gandour, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Khouja, M L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Toumi, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Triki, S</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Morphological evaluation of cork oak (Quercus suber): Mediterranean provenance variability in Tunisia</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Annals of forest science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">aforestation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic variability</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean plants</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">64</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">549-555</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Twenty-six provenances (2 340 plants) of cork oak (Quercus suber spp.) originating from Portugal, Spain, Italy, Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia were tested for genetic variation among and within provenances by growth traits.

The SE were obtained by a simple somatic embryogenesis protocol: leaf explants from two adult plants (QsG0, QsG5) and from two juvenile plants (QsGM1, QsGM2) were inoculated on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and zeatin. Calluses with primary embryogenic structures were transferred to MSWH (MS medium without growth regulators) and SE proliferated by secondary somatic embryogenesis. High morphological heterogeneity was found among cotyledonary SE. However, converted plants looked morphologically normal with well-developed rooting systems and shoots. The genetic stability of the plant material during the somatic embryogenesis process was evaluated by using six to eight nuclear microsatellites transferred from Q. myrsinifolia Blume, Q. petraea (Matts.) Liebl. and Q. robur L. Five of eight microsatellites distinguished among the genotypes analyzed, and for QsG0, QsGM1 and QsGM2, uniform microsatellite patterns were generally observed within and between SE and the respective donor genotypes. For genotype QsG5, the same pattern was observed in all samples analyzed except one, where the mutation percentage was 2.5%. We conclude that microsatellite markers can be used to assess genetic stability of clonal materials and to determine genetic stability throughout the process of somatic embryogenesis. The simple somatic embryogenesis protocol described has potential for the commercial propagation of Q. suber because it results in a low percentage of mutations.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/26.9.114510.1093/treephys/26.9.1145</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>3</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bellarosa, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schirone, B</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Busatto, M</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Scannerini, S and Baker, A and Charlwood, BV and Damiano, C and Franz, C and Gianinazzi, S</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The use of cork oak in the ecological and landscape restoration of the Latium Hills</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SYMPOSIUM ON PLANT BIOTECHNOLOGY AS A TOOL FOR THE EXPLOITATION OF MOUNTAIN LANDS</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">arboretum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cork oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic variability</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">reforest</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY HORTICULTURAL SCIENCE</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 500, 3001 LEUVEN 1, BELGIUM</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">47-54</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">90-6605-760-2</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The cork oak (Quercus suber L.) is a western Mediterranean species&lt;br/&gt;frequently found in Italy along the Tyrrhenian coast and on the islands.&lt;br/&gt;Its economic importance is well known, but the species is also&lt;br/&gt;ecologically precious. Notably, in fact, it is extremely resistant to&lt;br/&gt;forest fires.&lt;br/&gt;Because of its properties a project is on its way to restore the&lt;br/&gt;marginal lands of northern Latium through the reforestation with&lt;br/&gt;selected specimens of cork oak. The main aims of the project are:&lt;br/&gt;the genetic comparison between cork oak of different Italian provenances&lt;br/&gt;the establishment of an experimental arboretum which will collect cork&lt;br/&gt;oak deriving from the 34 main European areas&lt;br/&gt;the running of experimental trials on innovative reforestation&lt;br/&gt;techniques, such as the Miyawaki method.&lt;br/&gt;The methodology and initial results of the project are reported.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
