In order to have successful application of genomic selection, reference population and marker density should be chosen properly. This study purpose was to investigate the accuracy of genomic estimated breeding values in terms of low (5K), intermediate (50K) and high (777K) densities in the simulated populations, when different scenarios were applied about the reference populations selecting. Af...

Objective- The aim of this study was to test the repeatability, the variability, and to establish the reference values of PW measurements in healthy Markhoz goats.Design- Retrospective study.Animals- 20 female Markhoz goats.Procedure- Using a standardized PW Doppler echocardiographic protocol, 20healthy adult unsedated female Markhoz goats were investigated three times at one-...

introduction given the fact that children are more sensitive to radiation, compared to adults, special attention needs to be paid to radiation protection in pediatric radiology. diagnostic reference level (drl) has been defined to be employed as a practical tool for examining the overall performance of a radiological center in terms of patient dose among a series of similar equipments in an are...

in this paper, a new framework has been developed for compatibility analysis of predictive climatic variables distribution with reference evapotranspiration (eto) in probabilistic analysis of water requirement. initially, measured monthly meteorological data of four cities of iran including kerman, shiraz, ramsar and babolsar synoptic weather station recorded from 1961 to 2003 were considered b...

breed-wise standard echocardiographic values in dogs have been reported as there is variation in body and chest conformation which limits the application of data of one breed for other breed. labrador retrievers being originated from hunting dogs, might have different echocardiographic values from standard normal range of other dog breeds. so, the present study was aimed to determine the m-mode...
