to compare the seed characteristics in accessions of atriplex canescens under exclosure and non-exclosure conditions, two even-aged sites were selected with an area of 400 ha as the exclosure and 1000 ha as non-exclosure area. to conduct the study, 30 species were randomly selected in autumn 2009 in reference area of the sites and seeds were collected. some important seed characteristics were s...

an f2 japanese quail population was developed by crossing two strains (wild and white) to map quantitative trait loci (qtl) for performance and carcass traits. a total of 472 f2 birds were reared and slaughtered at 42 days of age. performance and carcass traits were measured on all of the f2 individuals. parental (p0), f1 and f2 individuals were genotyped with 3 microsatellites from quail chrom...

introduction quantitative susceptibility mapping (qsm) is a new contrast mechanism in magnetic resonance imaging (mri). the images produced by the qsm enable researchers and clinicians to easily localize specific structures of the brain, such as deep brain nuclei. these nuclei are targets in many clinical applications and therefore their easy localization is a must. in this study, we aimed to i...

objective: to obtain abnormalities in quantitative electroencephalography qeeg) and to observe connectivity between electrodes in children with asperger disorder. method: in this study, spectrogram criteria and coherence values are used as a tool for evaluating qeeg in 15 children with asperger disorder (10 boys and 5 girls aged between 6 to 11 years old) and in 11 control children boys and 4 g...

objective: to evaluate the brain signals in children with autism disorder in many different conditions of quantitative electroencephalography (qeeg) recordings in order to highlight abnormalities and to characterize this group. method: in this study, spectrogram was used as a tool for evaluating qeeg in 15 children with autism disorders (13 boys and 2 girls aged between 6 to 11 years old) and i...

Recent studies with the fruitfly Drosophila suggest that alleles of loci known from classical genetics can make major contributions to continuous-trait variation.

This report describes preliminary data from a study of how children with phonological impairment (PI) perceive automatically corrected versions of their own deviant speech. The results from 8 children with PI are compared to results of a group of 20 children with typical speech and language (nPI). The results indicate group differences only in tasks where the children make judgments of their ow...
