Inter-simple sequence repeat PCR (ISSR-PCR) is a fast, inexpensive genotyping technique based on length variation in the regions between microsatellites. The method requires no species-specific prior knowledge of microsatellite location or composition. Very small amounts of DNA are required, making this method ideal for organisms of conservation concern, or where the quantity of DNA is extremely limited due to organism size. ISSR-PCR can be highly reproducible but requires careful attention to detail. Optimization of DNA extraction, fragment amplification, and normalization of fragment peak heights during fluorescent detection are critical steps to minimizing the downstream time spent verifying and scoring the data.

Chili pepper (Capsicum spp.) fruits are used as vegetables, spices, and ornamental plants, necessitating various fruit characteristics. However, their genetic improvement is challenging through conventional crossbreeding due to the quantitative traits, which makes it difficult to predict phenotypes in the progeny.

Background: Persimmon (Diospyros kaki L.) belongs to the Ebenaceae family, which includes six genera and about 400 species. This study evaluated the genetic diversity of 100 persimmon accessions from Hatay province, Türkiye using 42 morphological and pomological traits, along with inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers and multivariate analysis.

Merr] are among the important crops, but the cultivated resources are normally low-yielding, susceptible to diseases and low profit. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the genetic diversity of black soybean germplasms for breeding programs.
