Canine distemper virus (CDV) is the cause of canine distemper (CD) which is a severe and highly contagious disease in dogs. In the present study, a duplex reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method was developed for the detection and differentiation of wild-type and vaccine strains of CDV. Four primers were designed to detect and discriminate the two viruses by generating 6...

To investigate the impact of overexpression of AtNRT2.1 transgene from Arabidopsis on nitrate uptake rate and to understand the regulation of endogenous HATS by nitrate and glutamine amino acid (Gln) in tobacco plants, wild-type and transgenic (F line) plants grown on soil for 4 weeks were transferred to hydroponic culture in a controlled-environment with a 16/8h L:D photoperiod at 24? C/20...

a 3-year-old wild gray wolf was referred to the department of veterinary clinical sciences of shirazuniversity with a history of car accident. the radiographic examination showed supracondylar distal femoralfracture in right leg. the wolf was pre-medicated by acepromazine followed by induction of anesthesia usinga combination of diazepam and ketamine. anesthesia was maintained by halothane. the...

twenty accessions of cultivated grass pea (lathyrus sativus l.) and wild species of lathyrus l.collected from western and southern regions of iran were evaluated for their mitotic metaphase chromosomalcharacteristics. all populations comprising 16 populations of cultivated l. sativus and 4 wild populations oflathyrus l. were diploid, 2n=2x=14 chromosomes. there were significant variations among...

seed dormancy has a critical role in ecological adaptation of wild plant species such as hordeum spontaneum, a wild relative of barley. in this study, 192 ecotypes of hordeum spontaneum maintained in national plant gene bank of iran (npgbi) originating from different climatic zones of the country were evaluated. morphological, phenological and physiological traits were recorded in the field. af...

objective(s): to understand the role of mitochondrial respiration in cisplatin sensitivity, we have employed wild-type and mitochondrial dna depleted rho0 yeast cells. materials and methods: wild type and rho0 yeast cultured in fermentable and non-fermentable sugar containing media, were studied for their sensitivity against cisplatin by monitoring growth curves, oxygen consumption, ph changes ...

in order to study the effects of wild mustard density on grain yield and yield components of canola cv. hyola 401 under different rates of nitrogen fertilizer, a field experiment was conducted in 2011-2012. the layout was split-plot in a completely randomized block design and three replications. main-plots included four levels of nitrogen (0, 70, 140 and 210 kg ha-1) and sub-plots consisted of ...
