BACKGROUND Australia introduced a national quadrivalent human papillomavirus (4vHPV) vaccination programme for girls and young women in April, 2007. The HPV genotypes targeted by the female vaccine could also affect the protection afforded to heterosexual men. We examined the prevalence of 4vHPV targeted vaccine genotypes and the nine-valent HPV (9vHPV)-targeted vaccines genotypes among sexuall...

in order to study, the effects of drought stress on germination and seedling growth of chickpea genotypes, experiments were carried out on two susceptible genotypes (mcc68, mcc448) and two resistant genotypes (mcc392, mcc877). in the first experiment the seeds were sown under different levels of drought stress (0,-0.4,-0.8,-1.2mpa) in 25◦c at the growth chamber with 4 replication. the results s...

Study was carried out for determining the reaction of 83 peppers varieties, breeding lines, and local forms /landraces/ to fungal pathogen Verticillium dahliae Kleb. as they are part Balkan Capsicum core collection which deeply phenotyped in recent years. The development disease reported twice high degree resistance 41 accessions. highest percentage highly resistant group genotypes 72%, followe...

Almond is one of the most important nut crops in Iran. Due to the suitable climatic conditions, Iran is one of the most important growing centers for wild and domesticated species of almond in world. Native genotypes typically are early flowering, due to late spring frost, often; they have been damaged. So frost damage to the flowers and early developing fruits is one of the most limiting facto...

common bacterial blight (cbb) of bean caused by xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli is a seriously important disease that adversely affects the quantity and quality of seed. cultivation of resistant cultivars is the most effective method of  the disease control. to identify disease resistant genotypes of selected beans, an experiment was conducted in  agriculture and natural resources research ...

linked and/or gene-based molecular markers have been used widely in marker-assisted selection (mas) to differentiate resistant and susceptible genotypes. resistance to meloidogyne spp. in beta vulgaris l. is mediated by a single dominant gene (r6m-1). using allele-specific primers (asps), an snp marker harboring a single nucleotide polymorphism (a/g), linked to the resistance gene was developed...

melon and musk melon are grown widely in warm and moderate climate regions of the world as well as iran. these crops are attacked by several fungal pathogens including macrophomina phaseolina which causes charcoal rot disease at different growth stages and reduces the yield remarkably. fungicide application and other control methods have not been successful in control of charcoal rot and utiliz...
