in this study the data of 2332 lambs from 815 dams and 61 sires, collected during 1993-2004 in kermani sheep breeding station were used to estimate phenotypic, genetic and environmental trends for birth weight (bw), weaning weight (ww), 6 months weight (6mw), 9 months weight (9mw) and yearling weight (yw). heritability estimates were determined for each trait using derivative free reml procedur...

genetic parameters were estimated in a base and closed population of iranian honeybee colonies. data were obtained on 500-700 iranian native population of honey­bee colonies (honeybee breeding project in central region of iran) subject to 9 successive generation of selection. these populations had been selected for honey production, swarming behavior, and defense behavior. heritability of honey...

In this work, we have applied two geophysical techniques in different areas of potential interest for paleoseismological assessment the active faults Acambay graben. The main goal was to localize segments buried suspected break surface during 1912 Earthquake, order (1) identify favorable sites investigation purpose and (2) extrapolate data obtained with a paleoseismic trenching. On one hand, El...

in this research genetic and phenotypic parameters were estimated using linear and threshold models, for reproductive traits, data from 6 large industrial dairy herd of east azerbaijan province collected by agriculture jihad organization during 10 years (2001-2010). best linear unbiased predictions of traits breeding values were estimated using restricted maximum likelihood method by wombat sof...

Dissolved oxygen (DO) is an important parameter for evaluating the seawater quality of oce-anic environment, but distribution DO and its possible mechanisms marine environ-mental regulation are less studied. Here, spatial influence main environmental factors on were explored using in-situ observation data collected in northern coastal waters Beibu Gulf April 2021, based cluster analysis, partia...

We propose a new approach to the correspondence prob lem that makes use of non parametric local transforms as the basis for correlation Non parametric local transforms rely on the relative order ing of local intensity values and not on the intensity values themselves Correlation using such transforms can tolerate a signi cant number of outliers This can result in improved performance near objec...

The present study aimed to estimate heritability, genetic and phenotypic correlations between body weight and body measurement traits in Iranian Makuei sheep. The used data were collected from 1989 to 2012 at Makuei Sheep Breeding Station in Maku (West Azarbayjan province). The data included body weight and five body measurement traits (body length (BL), heart girth (HG), withers height (WH), r...

Objective(s): The enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) has been one of the most intriguing emerging bacterial pathogens in children that occur both in developing countries and the industrial world. Although various phenotypic and genotypic based protocols have been suggested for diagnosis of EAEC, they are not conclusive or practical to be used in most clinical la...

data related to holstein dairy cattle from 1987 to 2004 were obtained from animal breeding center of iran to estimate the genetic and phenotypic trends. variance components and genetic parameters of the first lactation records were estimated using restricted maximum likelihood method and aireml algorithm through matvec program. animal breeding values were predicted through multiple-trait animal...
