پژمردگی فوزاریومی خربزه و طالبی با عامل fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis از بیماری های مهم قارچی در مناطق رشد این گیاهان می باشد. جدایه های f. oxysporum از گیاهان و خاک ریزوسفر متعلق به پنج استان مهم تولیدکننده ی خربزه و طالبی جداسازی شد و بر پایه ی بیماری زایی در ارقام افتراقی، گروه های سازگاری رویشی (vegetative compatibility groups)، توالی سنجی ناحیه ی جداکننده ی بین ژنی دی اِن اِی ریبوزومی (n...

alien and invasive freshwater fish species in iran: diversity, environmental impacts and management

more than 32 alien (exotic) fish species belonging to 10 orders and 12 families (cyprinidae, gobiidae, salmonidae, anguilidae, mugilidae, centrarchidae, heteropneustidae, gasterosteidae, cichlidae, poecilidae, adrianichthyidae and pleuronectidae) were reported from iran of which 25 species are confirmed by specimens. some of the alien fishes (e.g., cyprinus carpio , carassius auratus , pesudora...

Species distribution modelling of invasive alien species; Pterois miles for current distribution and future suitable habitats

The present study aims to predict the potential geographic distribution and future expansion of invasive alien lionfish (Pterois miles) with ecological niche modelling along the Mediterranean Sea. The primary data consisted of occurrence points of P. miles in the Mediterranean and marine climatic data layers were collected from global databases. All the used models run 100% su...

Alien Species and Their Control

A Review of Fish Taxonomy Conventions and Species Identification Techniques

Taxonomists, ecologists, geneticists or researchers from other biological fields who wish to adopt fish as a constituent of their studies often become discouraged when they find that ichthyology is a complex subject. In fish-based studies, the failure to recognize fishes as distinct biological units can lead to wrong diagnosis. Hence, this review paper attempts to clarify and discuss the latest...
