شته مومی کلم (Brevicoryne brassicae L.)، یکی از آفات کلیدی و اقتصادی گیاهان خانواده چلیپائیان در جهان می‌باشد که اثرات مخربی بر روی کلزا (Brassica napus به همراه داشته است. این تحقیق، منظور تخمین دقیق جمعیت کلم، سه روش نمونه‌برداری (عکس‌برداری، اندازه‌گیری میانگین طول ساقه آلوده وزنی شته)‌ عنوان تیمارهای اصلی با شمارش مستقیم تیمار شاهد مرحله غنچه‌دهی، گل‌دهی غلاف‌دهی طور جداگانه، مورد مقایسه قر...

A complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence was determined for the lizard Calotes versicolor (Reptilia; Agamidae). The 16,670-bp genome with notable shorter genes for some protein-coding and tRNA genes had the same gene content as that found in other vertebrates. However, a novel gene arrangement was found in which the proline tRNA (trnP) gene is located in the light strand instead of its typ...

Moisture-harvesting lizards, such as the Australian thorny devil Moloch horridus, have remarkable adaptations for inhabiting arid regions. Their microstructured skin surface, with channels in between overlapping scales, enables them to collect water by capillarity and passively transport it to the mouth for ingestion. We characterized this capillary water transport for live thorny devils using ...

The mountain dragon, Rankinta (7ympanocryptis) diemensis (Gray, 1841), is the only member of the Agamidae in Tasmania. It occurs in some of the coldest regions occupied by any dragon in Australia, and is found in a variety of habitats ranging from coastal heath to alpine scrub. This paper examines the reproductive ecology of R. diemensis in the most southerly range of its distribution, providin...
