five oppiid mite species (oribatida: oppiidae) belonging to three genera (corynoppia, ramusella and rhinoppia) are reported as new records for the mite fauna of iran. some of their morphological features and distributions in the world are presented. a key to the subfamilies, genera and species of all iranian oppiid mites is given.

This research was carried out to define the morphological features of Meckel’s diverticulum (MD) induck and to investigate whether the MD resides in a constant position along the intestinal tract. For thispurpose, a total of 30 adult healthy ducks of both sexes, 50-52 weeks of age were used. After dissecting,some morphological factors such as: total intestine length as well as the lengths of th...

Out of 163 samples of suspected volunteer plants to fungal infection collected from different areas of Hamedan province (W Iran), 49 isolates of the anamorphic fungi were identified according to morphological and molecular features. Based on these, 13 species were identified and classified in six genera.

Morphological features of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seeds were measured in five bean cultivars (Akhtar, Ks21189, Ks31169, G11867 and khomein) using digital image analysis. The images of seeds were captured using digital camera (Canon G7). The images were analyzed using image processing toolbox of MATLAB ver. 7.6 software. Morphological features including Area, Perimeter, Major and Min...

Lunar impact craters are important for studying lunar surface morphology because they are the most typical morphological units of the Moon. Impact crater descriptive indices can be used to describe morphological features and thus provide direct evidence for both the current state and evolution history of the Moon. Current description methods for lunar impact craters are predominantly qualitativ...

many genetic disorders or possible abnormalities that may occur in the future generations can be predicted through analyzing the features of the chromosomes. for this purpose, karyotype is often used which to make it, there is necessary to identify each one of the 24 chromosomes from the microscopic images. the first step of this process is to define the morphological and band pattern based fea...
