Laboratory populations and colonies of animals are established and maintained for a variety of purposes with biomedical, reproductive, behavioral, and genetical research being among the most common uses. Animal populations are also established and maintained for conservation purposes, as is the case with endangered species captive breeding programs in zoological parks and similar institutions. ...

the association between 140 microsatellite bands of 20 primer pairs and 13 quantitative traits recorded on 70 aegilops crassa from iran was evaluated. pearson’s coefficients showed significant correlations between some morphological traits. polymorphic information contents (pic) of loci were in the range of 0/16 (xgwm190) to 0/44 (xgwm161). the result of multiple regression analysis showed sign...

Kazakhstan has very rich walnut genetic resources; however there is no ongoing walnut breeding program. Kazakhstan government has several projects in cooperation with Russia, USA, Bulgaria, Czech Republic and Poland for plant breeding purposes. In the present research walnut genetic resources originated from Jabağıl, Tulkıbas, Sayram, Lenger, and Botanical Garden of International Hodja Ahmet Ye...

The Prevention and Incidence of Asthma and Mite Allergy (PIAMA) study is a birth cohort study that investigates the influence of allergen exposure on the development of allergy and asthma in the first several years of life. The objectives of this study were to investigate the relationship between a family history of allergy and/or asthma and exposure of newborn children to mite and pet allergen...

evaluation of morphological variations in 70 genotypes of seven accessions of thymus caramanicus jalas.growing in central iran was carried out, for determining valuable characters for future breeding programs and medicinal purposes. in this study 30 quantitative and qualitative characters were evaluated. the results revealed great variabilities of important traits among populations. results of ...

The review gives an insight into amaranth, a very promising crop for the whole world. This has long history dating back to days of Aztecs and Incas, whom it was one most important crops, along with corn. However, unlike latter, amaranth lost its nutritional value after being introduced Europe. Only in 20th century, largely thanks Nikolai Vavilov, attracted great interest as food feed crop. Amar...
