Genome-wide regulatory gene-derived SSRs reveal genetic differentiation and population structure in fiber flax genotypes.

We designed a set of 580 simple sequence repeat markers; 506 from transcription factor-coding genes, and 74 from long non-coding RNAs and designated them as regulatory gene-derived simple sequence repeat (ReG-SSR) markers. From this set, we could anchor 559 ReG-SSR markers on 15 flax chromosomes with an average marker distance of 0.56 Mb.

Detection of Mesta yellow vein mosaic virus (MeYVMV) in field samples by a loop-mediated isothermal amplification reaction.

A loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay was optimized for the detection of Mesta yellow vein mosaic virus (MeYVMV) in diseased plants of mesta (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.& H. cannabinus L.
