Investigating the Role of Gourabs in Supplying Water to Villages in Desert Areas of Khuzestan Province, Iran
Agriculture dates back to several millennia in Mesopotamia and Khuzestan plain. Alongside agricultural production, people in this region have preserved water and soil, reduced water and wind erosion, and mitigated the impact of floods and drought based on experience, simple techniques, and using rocks and soil as construction material. The Khuzestan plain is located at the end of the drainage b...
متن کاملMolecular Markers for Fertility in Farm Animals
A genetic marker is a gene or DNA sequence with known localization on a chromosome. It can be de-scribed as a variation that can be measured or detected by a suitable method, and can be used subsequently to detect the presence of a specific genotype. Such variations occurring at chromosomal or DNA level can serve as genetic markers. The progress in development of molecular markers suggests thei...
متن کاملInduced Termination of Pregnancy in Domestic Farm Animals
Induced abortion may be desired during a normal or abnormal pregnancy. The methods of induced abortion differ between species mainly because of different sources for progesterone production during pregnancy between species and within a species according to different stages of gestation. In cows and buffaloes, pregnancy can be effectively terminated from 5 to 150 days by administration of luteol...
متن کاملRun of Homozygosity a Procedure to Detecting Inbreeding in Farm Animals
Inbreeding depression is a harmful phenomenon in livestock which is outcome of inbreeding. Inbreeding is consequence mating between two individuals who are more related to each other than average relatedness in population, which results in reducing in fitness of progenies and genetic variability in populations. Development of high-density genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array f...
متن کاملTransgenesis in farm animals
The production of transgenic animals has many biotechnological applications; however, available techniques still remain inefficient. This review summarizes the contributions of our group to transgenesis in domestic animal. One of the most traditional transgenesis techniques in farm animals is somatic cell nuclear transfer using genetically modified somatic cells. Using this technique, we produc...
