چکیده

An 8-year-old female with a history of chronic headaches and uncertain papilloedema was found to have a variant of the posterior intracranial dural venous sinuses on magnetic resonance imaging assessment of the brain. Magnetic resonance venography included in the imaging revealed a circular formation of the confluence of sinuses and absent right-sided transverse sinus. The confluence of sinuses is a highly variable structure; however, to the authors' knowledge, a circular confluence of sinuses variant has not been reported in the literature.

Putative RFLP Analysis between HSVd-sb and Closely Related Variant

Sweet lime split bark is a disorder of increasing importance in Fars province. Previously we showed that a new variant of hop stunt viroid (HSVd-sb) was related to the disorder. It had homology with a noncachexia variant of hop stunt viroid (CVd-IIa-117) which causes cracking the bark of trifoliate orange rootstocks. In this study, showed that M.NgoBIX, BglI and BsrI restriction enzymes can c...
