Summary: This study analyzed the genetic structure of P. fluviatilis in China using microsatellite markers. A large number of microsatellite markers were developed based on genomic data, and the genetic diversity of wild populations was evaluated. The results showed high genetic diversity in populations from Wulungu Lake, Jili Lake, and the Wulungu River, and medium genetic diversity in the Kalaeerqisi River.

Summary: This study aimed to characterize the genetic diversity of daylily species, early hybrids, and cultivars using SSR markers and identify the origin of early hybrids. Samples from different types of daylilies were collected, and SSR primers developed for Citrus x citrofortunella were used. The most informative primer was SAU00097. Heterozygosity was highest in Lithuanian cultivars and lowest in species. Genetic relationships showed that fulvous daylilies formed a separate cluster. The highest variation among genotypes was observed in the species group, while modern cultivars had the least variation. The putative origin of early hybrids was analyzed, and triploid species were identified as ancestors of several modern cultivars.

Summary: The objective of this study was to assess the genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationship, and population structure of five goat breeds in Shanxi, China. The results showed high genetic diversities in the five populations, with Licheng big green goat (LCBG) having the highest genetic diversity and Jinlan cashmere goat (JLCG) having the lowest genetic diversity. The genetic differentiation analysis revealed a close genetic relationship between LCBG and LLBG (Lvliang black goat), while JLCG showed the largest genetic distance from the other four populations. The population structure of JLCG differed from the other four populations. Understanding the genetic diversity and population structure of indigenous goats is crucial for genetic improvement, understanding environmental adaptation, and the utilization and conservation of goat breeds.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of artificial selection on the genetic structure of four whiteleg shrimp strains and found that all strains maintained a moderate level of genetic diversity. However, some strains showed different trends in genetic diversity across generations, indicating the need to take measures to maintain the level of genetic diversity.

Summary: With the increasing scale of crayfish breeding, it is important to select and breed high-quality fry to avoid degradation of the fry. This study analyzed the genetic structure and diversity of three Procambarus clarkii populations and found that the Xuancheng population exhibited the highest genetic diversity. These results provide valuable information for breeding programs and suggest that the Xuancheng population has a better genetic background for genetic breeding.

Summary: Microsatellite markers were used to analyze the genetic diversity and population genetic structure of Mytilus unguiculatus in seven coastal areas of China. The study found high genetic diversity in M. unguiculatus, with genetic structure differences observed between the Qingdao population and the other six populations. The findings have implications for the development and protection of wild germplasm resources and the formulation of breeding programs.

Summary: This study conducted a diversity analysis of 96 bitter gourd genotypes, revealing a high level of agro-morphological and genetic diversity. Cluster analysis and population structure analysis grouped the genotypes into different clusters and populations. Trait-specific genotypes with early maturity and high-yielding ability were identified based on quantitative trait analysis. These findings contribute to the development of improved cultivars and hybrids of bitter gourd.
