Heaven and hell: Spotlights on some DNA barcodes for species identification and delimitation in ground beetles

DNA barcodes for biosecurity: invasive species identification.

Biosecurity encompasses protecting against any risk through 'biological harm', not least being the economic impact from the spread of pest insects. Molecular diagnostic tools provide valuable support for the rapid and accurate identification of morphologically indistinct alien species. However, these tools currently lack standardization. They are not conducive to adaptation by multiple sectors ...

Heaven and Hell: Visions for Pervasive Adaptation

With everyday objects becoming increasingly smart and the “info-sphere” being enriched with nanosensors and networked to computationally-enabled devices and services, the way we interact with our environment has changed significantly, and will continue to change rapidly in the next few years. Being user-centric, novel systems will tune their behaviour to individuals, taking into account users’ ...

global results on some nonlinear partial differential equations for direct and inverse problems

در این رساله به بررسی رفتار جواب های رده ای از معادلات دیفرانسیل با مشتقات جزیی در دامنه های کراندار می پردازیم . این معادلات به فرم نیم-خطی و غیر خطی برای مسایل مستقیم و معکوس مورد مطالعه قرار می گیرند . به ویژه، تاثیر شرایط مختلف فیزیکی را در مساله، نظیر وجود موانع و منابع، پراکندگی و چسبندگی در معادلات موج و گرما بررسی می کنیم و به دنبال شرایطی می گردیم که متضمن وجود سراسری یا عدم وجود سراسر...

Species delimitation in the Grayling genus Pseudochazara (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Satyrinae) supported by DNA barcodes

The Palaearctic Grayling genus Pseudochazara encompasses a number of petrophilous butterfly species, most of which are local endemics especially in their centre of radiation in SW Asia and the Balkans. Due to a lack of consistent morphological characters, coupled with habitat induced variability, their taxonomy is poorly understood and species delimitation is hampered. We employed a DNA barcodi...
