To test if locus-specific microsatellite markers designed for one genus are informative when used with related genera, the conservation of microsatellite-flanking intergeneric primer binding sites was tested in the closely related tribes Vicieae and...

The effect of constant temperatures (5, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35°C) on embryo development period
and percentage of egg hatching of S. crinitus Herbst was determined in the laboratory. A significant negative
relationship (P 0.05; r = - 0.84) was...
