[Allelic variants of the gene bamyl barley in Eastern European and central Asian areas]
Abstract:
The collections of varieties of spring barley cultivars from the Eastern European and Central Asian areas were analyzed by exonpecific PCR (EPIC) for beta-amylase genes. The endosperm beta-amylase gene (bamyl) was differentiated by the presence of 126 bp MITE insertion into intron 3 that is associated with low activity beta-amylase. The findings suggest that a low level of genetic variation for bamylgene within climatic zones is associated with individual breeding program for each climatic zone.

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...
