Speciation is an important evolutionary process that occurs when barriers to gene flow evolve between previously panmictic populations. Although individual barriers to gene flow have been studied extensively, we know relatively little regarding the number of barriers that isolate species or whether these barriers are polymorphic within species. Herein, we use a series of field and lab experimen...

Background: Hyperlipidemia is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by an excess of lipids in the bloodstream Objective: Given previous studies on barberry and Melissa officinalis extracts, this study aims at comparing hypolipidemic activities of Melissa officinalis extract and Berberis vulgaris. Methods: For the purpose of this study, 64 Wistar rats were selected and divided into...

Melissa officinalis is a plant of Lamiaceae family with medicinal properties which is important for its aromatic, synthetic, and secondary metabolites. The aim of this research was to study the effect of selenium on secondary metabolites and antioxidant properties of Melissa officinalis. For this purpose, an experiment was done in a completely randomized design with four repli...

Multi-run numerical simulations using supercomputers are increasingly used by physicists and engineers for dealing with input data model uncertainties. Most of the time, parameters a simulation modeled as random variables, then run (possibly large) number times varied according to specific design experiments. Uncertainty quantification is hard computational problem, currently bounded large size...
