Capsules from a range of pathogenic bacteria are the key determinants of virulency. The capsule hasbeen implicated in virulence of Pasteurella multocida. In this study a type-specific polymerase chain reaction(PCR) assay was used for capsular typing of 39 avian P. multocida isolates from Iran. The PCR amplified afragment of 1044 bp from all of tested isolates. It was found that all avian P. mul...

Abstract Soybean is a nitrogen fixer. Also it model plant for the study of biological fixation (BNF). Soybeans produce more protein and vegetable oil per acre than they do. Over 5000 years, China has been centre global soybean production. The Chinese Academy Agriculture Sciences (CAAS) institute crop germplasm resources national gene bank called National Gene Bank (NGB) that made up nearly 24,0...

sixteen avian influenza (ai) h9n2 viruses were isolated from disease outbreaks in different parts of iranduring (1998–2001). these ai isolates were used for pathogenicity, haemagglutinin (ha) gene variation andphylogenetic analysis. results in both pathogenicity tests and ha gene cleavage site sequence detectionrepresented a non-highly pathogenic feature for all iranian ai isolates studied. the...

bovine leukemia provirus: evidence of presence of part of gag gene inseminal plasma of naturally infected bullsit is of critical importance to understand the modalities of blv presence in semen, especially with regard to artificial insemination (ai). presence of bovine leukemia provirus was demonstrated in fresh and frozen semen samples by researchers. in this study paired blood and semen sampl...

quantitative traits locus for milk production traits has been described on centromeric end of bovine chromosome 14. reports name the acyl coa: diacylglycerol acyltransferase (dgat1) gene as a potential candidate gene with dinucleotide substitution (aa to gc) in exon viii which causes the change of lysine to alanine in amino acid (k232a).the aim of the present study was to estimate the frequency...
