• Abstract - The flow cytometry technique has been applied in order to check the ploidy level of seven provenances of local alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) Gabsi, to estimate the genome (pg DNA) size of these alfalfa lines and to verify whether any genetic differences existed between these provenances belonging to the same population. (jnsciences.org)

  • In order to evaluate the nuclear DNA content and to asses genetic diversity among seven provenances of local populations of Medicago sativa L . Gabsi, we used flow cytometry as it i s generally used for ploidy analysis and considered as the most accurate tool for determining the ploidy level (Dolezḝl et al. (jnsciences.org)

  • With further investigation, these markers and candidates would be useful for developing markers for marker-assisted selection in breeding programs to improve alfalfa cultivars with enhanced tolerance to salt stress. (usda.gov)
  • The increase of biological nitrogen fixation in these systems, through the breeding of tolerant cultivars to acidic soils and a stepwise legumes enrichment, alongside soil fertility management, may contribute to increasing biomass production, SOM content and overall ecological plasticity.
