Molecular phylogeny of Heritiera Aiton (Sterculiaceae), a tree mangrove: variations in RAPD markers and nuclear DNA content
TLDR
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers are used to estimate interspecific variation among mangrove and non-mangrove Heritiera fomes, H. littoralis and H. macrophylla to find characteristic molecular markers in H. Macrophylla, a species from a non-reproductive habitat.About:

Variation in inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) in mangrove and non-mangrove populations of Heritiera littoralis (Sterculiaceae) from China and Australia
TL;DR: It is suggested that geographic distance is the primary cause of genetic differentiation between China and Australia at the regional scale, whereas, the strongly divergent habitats also play an important role in within region differentiation at the local scale.

Detection and Evaluation of Genetic Variation in 17 Promising Cultivars of Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) Using 4C Nuclear DNA Content and RAPD Markers
TL;DR: The differential DNA content observed among 17 different cultivars of Curcuma longa comprising same chromosome number could be attributed to the loss or addition of highly repetitive sequences in the genome.

Identification of RAPD markers, in situ DNA content and structural chromosomal diversity in some legumes of the mangrove flora of Orissa
TL;DR: By employing RAPD markers, karyotypes and 4C DNA content analysis, the present study has helped to resolve the relationship between the taxonomically diverse leguminous mangroves and study their ability to coexist with mangrove that would shed light on the evolution ofMangroves from terrestrial species.

Conservation genetics of Heritiera littoralis (Sterculiaceae), a threatened mangrove in China, based on AFLP and ISSR markers
TL;DR: Investigation of the plant’s reproductive capacity showed that the natural seed production of H. littoralis was low, as was the germination rate and the transformation rate from juvenile to adult, and life history traits, long-distance dispersal of floating seeds, and local environments may play important roles in shaping the genetic diversity and genetic structure of this species.

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.
