ABSTRACT Introduction: Formation of gastric ulcer is a multifactorial process so that vascular changes, mucous secretion, gastric acid and gastrointestinal tract mucous biochemistry are involved in gastric ulcers. Despite therapeutic properties, ibuprofen as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) can cause mucosal lesions in the stomach. In this study, the effect of Matri...

Deleterious mutations are expected to evolve under negative selection and are usually purged from the population. However, deleterious alleles segregate in the human population and some disease-associated variants are maintained at considerable frequencies. Here, we test the hypothesis that balancing selection may counteract purifying selection in neighboring regions and thus maintain deleterio...

robust information of genetic diversity among bt cotton genotypes is still lacking and availability of several marker systems has prompted us to compare their utility for the detection of genetic diversity. here, we report the comparative efficiency of morphological and molecular markers (est-ssrs and issrs) in determining the genetic diversity among 30 pakistani bt cotton genotypes. three diff...

totally, 3200 and 320 young worker bees were investigated morphologically and molecularly respectively. the four important honey bee microsatellite loci, a24, a28, a29, a113, indicated a considerable level of genetic diversity among the nation’s northwest honey bee populations and, considering average number of alleles per locus (3.25-5.75) and, average expected heterozygosity (0.445-0.701) hig...

genetic diversity is necessary for breeding program and increasing genetic gain of selection in crop plants. with the onset of spring growth, spring cold stress is a problem for wheat crops at heading and also may be damaged some other parts of this plant. the aim of this study is the investigation of genetic diversity duo to artificial cold stress on the physiological traits, chlorophyll a, ch...
