introduction: spirochetes of borrelia can be visualized directly in infected ticks by dark-field microscopy. inoculation of in phosphate buffered saline (pbs) suspension of ground argasid soft ticks to susceptible animals or allowing the ticks to feed on the same species followed by microscopic examination of the animals’ blood have also been practiced. with the advent of molecular methods and ...

Prunus persica L. Batsch, or peach, is one of the most important crops and it is widely established in irrigated arid and semi-arid regions. However, due to variations in the climate and the increased aridity, drought has become a major constraint, causing crop losses worldwide. The use of drought-tolerant rootstocks in modern fruit production appears to be a useful method of alleviating water ...

cell cultures of varthemia persica dc. have been studied to evaluate their abilities in biotransformation of aromatic and aliphatic precursors. v. persica (asteraceae) is an aromatic plant growing in iran. v. persica contain different terpens but its cell culture does not posses these compounds. callus cultures of v. persica was established from seedlings and healthy suspensions were grown usin...

objectives: the objective of this research was to investigate the chemical composition and antibacterial activities of the fatty acids and essential oil from various parts of ligularia persica boiss (l. persica) growing wild in north of iran. materials and methods: essential oils were extracted by using clevenger-type apparatus. antibacterial activity was tested on two gram-positive and two gra...

background and objectives: otostegia persica (labiatae) is an endemic plant of iran and is used for its anti-inflammatory properties in folk medicine of sistan and baluchestan province. the aim of the present study was to investigate the anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects of o. persica different fractions and identification of the natural compounds from the most active fraction. met...

This study aimed to investigate gene families related Prunus persica (peach) and their evolutionary relationships. Gene identification sequence alignment methods were used characterize Homeobox, MADS-box, NAC, Receptor-kinase-like families. expression data analysis was conducted assess activity regulatory mechanisms in peach plant development. involved a local BLASTp using protein sequences from...
