The congruence between matrilineal genetic (mtDNA) and geographic diversity of Iranians and the territorial populations
Objective(s):From the ancient era, emergence of Agriculture in the connecting region of Mesopotamia and the Iranian plateau at the foothills of the Zagros Mountains, made Iranian gene pool as an important source of populating the region. It has differentiated the population spread and different language groups. In order to trace the maternal genetic affinity between Iranians and other populatio...
متن کاملRecombinant Goose Circoviruses Circulating in Domesticated and Wild Geese in Poland
Circoviruses are circular single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses that infect a variety of animals, both domestic and wild. Circovirus infection in birds is associated with immunosuppression and this in turn predisposes the infected animals to secondary infections that can lead to mortality. Farmed geese (Anser anser) in many parts of the world are infected with circoviruses. The majority of the cu...
متن کاملContribution of both positive selection and relaxation of selective constraints to degeneration of flyability during geese domestication
Flyability is the most discrepant trait between modern-day geese and their wild ancestors, and the degeneration of flyability is a key marker of the successful domestication of wild geese. In light of the relatively short history of domestic geese, intense artificial selection is thought to play an important role in the degeneration of flyability. However, the underlying mechanism behind this p...
متن کاملSex- and age-related changes of trabecular bone of tibia in growing domestic geese (Anser domesticus).
An analysis of radiological images of the spongious substance of the tibiotarsal bones in domestic goose (120 individuals) was performed for the first time. Based on radiographs obtained from radiological examinations conducted in the region of interest (80 x 90 mm2) of the proximal metaphysis, an analysis of the spongious substance of the tibia was performed with the Trabecula programme in ord...
متن کاملWhich goose breed is best for small and backyard poultry flocks?
Europeans raised domestic geese for both food and feathers long before settlers brought them to America. Unlike with chickens, turkeys, and ducks (to a limited extent), little genetic selective breeding has occurred with geese. However, different breeds have different characteristics, and the right breed for your flock depends on your intended use. Geese can be used for exhibition, meat and egg...
