Seasonal Variation of Earthworm Abundances and Biomass in Natural Forests and Plantations (North of Iran)
Soil productivity and plant growth are usually affected by biological activities of earthworms. The objective of this study was a comparative evaluation of earthworm abundances in 20-year-old plantations of Alder, Oak, Maple and Cypress with the adjacent natural mixed broad-leaved deciduous forest in the Caspian region of Iran. In this research one sample plot, each 1 ha; was selected in every ...

متن کاملGenic Variation in a Natural Population
-The understanding of the speciation process can best be achieved by a knowledge of the genic differences between two closely related species and the correlation of such differences with the characteristics which demarcate the two species. D. persimilis and D. pseudoobscura are two sibling species differing from each other in morphology, ecological preferences, and behavior, and no hybrids exis...
متن کاملExtreme genomic variation in a natural population.
Whole-genome sequence data from samples of natural populations provide fertile grounds for analyses of intraspecific variation and tests of population genetic theory. We show that the urochordate Ciona savignyi, one of the species of ocean-dwelling broadcast spawners commonly known as sea squirts, exhibits the highest rates of single-nucleotide and structural polymorphism ever comprehensively q...
متن کاملSeasonal variation of haemoglobin A1c in a Portuguese adult population.
OBJECTIVE Haemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) is routinely used for monitoring glycemic control in patients with diabetes. Hb A1c seasonal fluctuations can be directly related to different biological, geographical and cultural influences. Our purpose was to evaluate seasonal variation of Hb A1c in a hospital-based adult population over a period of 5 years. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed retrospective...
