Bacteriological and epidemiological studies were carried out on 106 isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated at our hospital (56 isolates) and from 15 other hospitals and clinics (50 isolates) in the Fukuoka city area. Strains were studied regarding coagulase-type, beta-lactamase production, and antimicrobial susceptibility; genotype studies used pulsed-field gel ...

Pangasiids are an economically significant group of catfish, and many pangasiids threatened in the wild from anthropogenic pressures, including increases fishing pressure, habitat degradation, improperly managed aquaculture practices. This study demonstrates usage DNA barcoding Cytochrome Oxidase subunit I (COI) gene as identification tool detecting potentially threatening invasive pangasiid sp...

Objective: This study aimed to examine the occupational variables affecting dentists. The relationship between was discovered by dendrogram, using hierarchical cluster analysis.
 Methods: a cross-sectional survey that includes 124 dentists in İstanbul (mean age ± S; 34.21 7.35 years; occupation year 11.05 6.78 73 married, 51 single; 61 men, 63 women). Some assessments (sleep, depression, a...

In the work presented in silico DNA sequence and dendrogram analyses were carried out to reveal molecular diversity genetic distances among Rhytisma entries related species based on gene bank data mining. The study revealed that R. acerinum shows closest distance polare. nucleotide variation detected raised a need for consensus between Linnean morphological new systematics.

This study was conducted to estimate genetic relationships among banana clones growing in Turkey via some morphological parameters and two molecular marker systems. In terms of yield such as bunch weight, hand number, fruit total Grand Nain (GN) clone came the forefront with highest values. It followed by Azman (AZ), Dwarf Cavendish (DC), Erdemli Yerli (EY) clones, respectively. To see variatio...

The present study aimed to determine the composition and structure of fringe inland mangroves near mouth Amazon River in Marajó Island. We established five sites and, each site, we a zone an zone. In zone, delimited 400-m2 plots, selected arboreal individuals with minimum height 1 m. were grouped into diameter classes basal area, analyzed phytosociological parameters. composition, richness, den...

Hierarchical clustering is one of the most suitable tools to discover underlying true structure a dataset in case unsupervised learning where ground truth unknown and classical machine classifiers are not suitable. In many real applications, it provides perspective on inner data preferred partitional methods. However, determining resulting number clusters hierarchical requires human expertise d...

Proteins are characterized by several typologies of features (structural, geometrical, energy). Most of these features are expected to be similar within a protein family. We are interested to detect which features can identify proteins that belong to a family, as well as to define the boundaries among families. Some features are redundant: they could generate noise in identifying which variable...

meriones crassus, meriones persicus, and meriones libycus from different areas of khorasan provinces and yazd province were studied by use of random amplified dna polymorphism (rapd) technique. dna samples were analyzed by use of nine primers. genetic distance among samples varied between 0.24 and 0.78. dendrogram designed on the base of genetic distance shows separation of these species. in th...
