Identification of apple cultivars using RAPD markers.

TLDR
A key is proposed by which one can differentiate apple cultivars using commercially available prime by using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA markers obtained by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Abstract
Eleven apple cultivars were differentiated using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers obtained by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The variability of the technique and of the origin of the DNA extract was analyzed. A set of bands consistent in their presence or absence was chosen to create a differentiating band pattern. A key is proposed by which one can differentiate apple cultivars using commercially available prime.

DNA fingerprinting in plants: principles, methods, and applications

TL;DR: Amin et al. as discussed by the authors used radioisotopes to measure the diversity of microsatellites in the field of plant DNA collection and preservation of plant Tissue in the Field.

The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) assay and related techniques applied to genotoxicity and carcinogenesis studies: a critical review.

TL;DR: After proper optimisation, the RAPD is a reliable, sensitive and reproducible assay, has the potential to detect a wide range of DNA damage as well as mutations and therefore can be applied to genotoxicity and carcinogenesis studies and is suggested that these assays would continue to complement the use of emerging technologies.

Microsatellites in Malus X domestica (apple): abundance, polymorphism and cultivar identification

TL;DR: Screening of an apple genomic library with (GA)15 and (GT)15 probes demonstrated that these repeats are abundant, occurring about every 120 and 190 kb, respectively.

Molecular Marker Linkage Map for Apple

TL;DR: The double pseudotestcross format of the mapping population permitted the comparison of recombination frequencies in male and female parents in certain regions of the genome where appropriate markers were available and gave no indication that a sex-related difference in recombination rate was characteristic of apple.

DNA polymorphisms amplified by arbitrary primers are useful as genetic markers

TL;DR: A new DNA polymorphism assay based on the amplification of random DNA segments with single primers of arbitrary nucleotide sequence is described, suggesting that these polymorphisms be called RAPD markers, after Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA.

Rapid identification of genetic variation and pathotype of Leptosphaeria maculans by random amplified polymorphic DNA assay.

TL;DR: Canadian isolates of Leptosphaeria maculans, the causal agent of blackleg of crucifers, were examined for genetic relatedness by the random amplified polymorphic DNA assay and results agreed with other reports which showed many genetic differences between pathotypes.
