چکیده

This report is to serve as an introduction to hy bridization studies which have been undertaken concerning adrenal cortical tumors and related pathological conditions. It is planned that reports similar to that for the reciprocal DBA and CE hy brids (27) will also be made. Hybridization studies have been used in many types of experiments with animals and with plants. Such experiments were of the type Mendel used and on which he based his principles of unit inher itance. Hybridization experiments with animals can be used not only to determine chromosomal in heritance, but also for purposes of evaluating other types of influences on the offspring, e.g., maternal influence influential in breast tumor occurrence in mice. The effects of gonadectomy on certain inbred strains of mice have already been reported in de tail (9, 10, 19, 23, 28—36),as well as some intensive studies on the pituitary (3, 5, 26) and the uterus (2) of some F1 reciprocal crosses. Recently, the findings on the reciprocal cross of strains DBA and CE have been reported (27). With this as a pat tern, it is possible to indicate how the other recip rocal crosses thus far investigated compare with this series. Primarily, the entire series was undertaken to determine the effect of inheritance on the response of the adrenals of the F1 animals to gonadectomy. However, certain other factors could not be neg lected and have been included in the results. A

Productive, reproductive performance and biochemical parameters of short-term divergently selected Japanese quail lines and their reciprocal crosses

The current study investigated the effect of short-term selection for four week body weight (BW) on performance of divergent lines of Japanese quail and their crosses. The mean of BW at hatching time, one, two, three and four week oldand BW at sexual maturity time, age at sexual maturity, number of eggs (from 50 to 100 days old), mean of egg weight, percentage of fertility and hatchability in e...

Endothelial Vasodilator Angiotensin Receptors are Changing in Mice with Ageing

Background: The vascular function of Angiotensin II-type-2 receptors in adults is controversial. We sought their location and function in mouse aortic rings at young and old mice. Materials and Methods: Male C57Bl mice (aged 4 and 14 months) were killed by CO2. The descending thoracic aorta was cleaned and dissected into rings. Aortic rings were mounted in Krebs’ solution at 37 °C an...

ارزیابی ژنتیکی صفات کمی برنج (Oryza sativa L.) با استفاده از روش تجزیه میانگین نسل‌ها

  In order to study mode of gene action in rice for the traits related to yield, four varieties of rice were investigated. Direct and reciprocal crosses have been done between parents Sang-Tarrom and Gerdeh, IR229 and IRRI2 and their back crosses. The F1 and BC seeds were grown in 2006 and F1 plants were selfed for obtaining F2 seeds. Therefore, 10 different populations (generations) including ...
