Molecular tools and genetic markers for the generation of transgenic sexing strains in Anopheline mosquitoes

phylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...

Morphological method for sexing anopheline larvae.

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Most of autocidal control of malaria vectors relies on the rearing and release of large numbers of sterile male into a wild population and it would be crucial to separate the males from females before release. This could result in enormous economic benefits in the mass rearing and raise the efficiency of the field operations. The development of genetic sexing of mosquito...

Development of genetic sexing strains in Lepidoptera: from traditional to transgenic approaches.

The sterile insect technique (SIT) is currently being used for the control of many agricultural pests, including some lepidopteran species. The SIT relies on the rearing and release of large numbers of genetically sterile insects into a wild population. The holokinetic chromosomes of Lepidoptera respond differently to radiation than do species where there is a localized centromere. This differe...

on the relationship between using discourse markers and the quality of expository and argumentative academic writing of iranian english majors

the aim of the present study was to investigate the frequency and the type of discourse markers used in the argumentative and expository writings of iranian efl learners and the differences between these text features in the two essay genres. the study also aimed at examining the influence of the use of discourse markers on the participants’ writing quality. to this end the discourse markers us...
