Study on sexual reproduction and some morphological and pathological traits of Ophiognomonia leptostyla in Iran
Walnut anthracnose caused by Ophiognomonia leptostyla is the most important and prevalent fungal disease in most walnut growing areas in Iran. Seventy-five isolates of Ophiognomonia leptostyla, causing walnut anthracnose, were obtained from Juglans regia from various regions of Iran. In order to study the sexual reproduction of the fungus, the isolates collected from various parts of Iran were ...
متن کاملStructural complexity and vertical zonation of intertidal crabs , with focus on habitat requirements of the invasive Asian shore crab ,
The strengths of biological processes (e.g., larval settlement, competition, predation, distribution of food resources) and physical factors (e.g., desiccation, freezing, salinity fluctuations) can be correlated with tidal height and may contribute to the vertical zonation of many rocky intertidal organisms. Habitat structural complexity has also been shown to influence the density and diversit...

متن کاملDiversity and distribution of True Crabs (Brachyura) from intertidal rocky shores of Qeshm Island, Persian Gulf
Rocky shores are one of the most important habitats of marine environment in coastal areas. This study was done in 2010-2011 to investigate the diversity of true crabs in intertidal rocky shores of Qeshm island. Samples were collected from intertidal zones during the low-tide at 5 stations. The specimens were fixed in 70% Etanol and transferred to laboratory for identification. Altogether, 15 c...
متن کاملMorphological traits, allometric relationship and competition of two seed-feeding species of beetles in infested pods
Pair-wise competition produces asymmetric consequences for the interacting species, resulting in reduction of species fitness at the individual scale; however, little is known of the effects of competition on the allometric patterns of insects. In this study, we explored how competition, by means of pod infestation, affects the development of female and male individuals in the co-occurring bruc...
