INTRODUCTION The aim of study was to investigate the virulence factors of phospholipase, proteinase, esterase production and biofilm formation in Candida species isolated from patients with candidemia, and to assess their relationship with Candida genotypes derived after repetitive sequence-based polymerase chain reaction (rep-PCR) fingerprinting. METHODOLOGY Fifty-two strains were identified...

INTRODUCTION Rotavirus is one of the leading pathogens which cause acute gastroenteritis in children and is responsible for a substantial proportion of childhood deaths worldwide. AIM To determine the group A rotavirus (RVA) prevalence and genotypes of circulating RVA strains in 0-5-year-old children with complaints of vomiting and diarrhoea in Eastern Anatolia in Turkey. MATERIAL AND METHO...

in order to study the genetic diversity among some male pistachio genotypes,16 male pistachio genotypes and 8 female pistachio cultivars were selected from iranian pistachio research institute (ipri). 12 rapd primers were used which totally produced 65 bands that among them 48 bands were polymorphic and 17 bands were monomorphic. cluster analysis based on similarity matrix and jaccard similarit...

Cytauxzoon felis is a virulent, tick-transmitted, protozoan parasite that infects felines. Cytauxzoonosis was previously thought to be uniformly fatal in domestic cats. Treatment combining atovaquone and azithromycin (A&A) has been associated with survival rates of over 60%. Atovaquone, a ubiquinone analogue, targets C. felis cytochrome b (cytb), of which 30 unique genotypes have been identifie...

in order to analyze genetic diversity and determine the most effective characteristics on seed yield, 49 alfalfa genotypes including foreign and iranian germplasms, were evaluated using a simple lattice design with two replications in researches station of natural resources and agricultural research center of east azerbaijan province. analysis of variance revealed significant genetic diversity ...

stats are a family of latent transcription factors that reside in the cytoplasm of resting cells. the stat1 transcription factor gene located on the chromosome 2 at interval 60 to 63 cm. this factor upon stimulation with inf gamma, dimerizes and translocate to the nucleus where mediates transcriptional regulation. in this study, we estimated the allele and genotype frequencies of stat1/pag1 gen...

background and objectives: quinoa (chenopodium quinoa willd.) is a member of amaranthaceae family that originated in the andean region in bolivia, chile and peru five thousands of years and so it has a tiny and round seeds. quinoa in different combinations of food used as food, as well as how to cook like rice grains and known as the inca rice in the south american countries. the high nutrition...
