abstract in this study, interaction between amf (g. mosseae and glomus spp., respectively indigenous and non-indigenous of hm-contaminated areas) with cd-resistant pgprs (bacillus mycoides and micrococcus roseus, indigenous of contaminated areas) on the growth, cd and nutrient uptake of maize plant (zea mays l.) in cd polluted soil were investigated. with increasing levels of cd, shoot and root...

To determine the prevalence of animal fascioliasis in coastal regions of the Caspian Sea, during 2006-2007, a total of 2368 faecal samples were collected from sheep (n=1250), cattle (n=975) and horse (n=143). The samples were obtained directly from the rectum of animals. Floatation method was performed for determination of egg per gram of faeces (EPG). Our findings revealed the presence of Fasc...

Genetic diversity as an important marker of the ecological status of aquatic ecosystems is considered a unique and powerful tool to evaluate biological communities. In order to evaluate the genetic diversity among golden mullet species (Liza aurata) in the southeast and southwest coasts of the Caspian Sea by D-Loop gene sequencing, a total of 23 fin specimens of golden mullet were collected fro...

many different plant species synthesize triterpenoid saponins as part of their normal programme of growth and development. examples include plants that are exploited as sources of drugs. interest in these molecules stems from their medicinal properties, antimicrobial activity, and their likely role as determinants of plant disease resistance. daisy (bellis perennis l.) accumulates triterpenoid ...

the effect of eight cucumis l. (cucurbitaceae) genotypes, including native cucumber genotypes (hormozgan, bushehr and gilan), greenhouse cucumber genotypes (girtap, negeen, sepehr and pouya) and armenian cucumber (cucumis melo var. flexuosus) was studied on the life table and population growth parameters of aphis gossypii glover to evaluate antibiosis resistance. the experiment was conducted at...

background:   human fascioliasis is an important health problem in the province of gilan, at the caspian sea, iran. there is the overlapping of both fasciolid species, fasciola hepatica and f. gigantica . recent studies on both domestic animal and lym­naeid infection furnished evidence suggesting that f. gigantica and radix gedrosiana may be the main fasciolid and lym­naeid involved in the dise...

Three new species are described from Iran: Cortodera kukinae Danilevsky et Skrylnik, sp. n. (Tehran province), Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) olegpaki and Phytoecia (Musaria) plyushchi (Gilan province). The illustrated redescription of (C.) cingulatum Ganglbauer, 1884 is given. New synonyms proposed: D. = ursulaheinzi Bernhauer, 2015, syn. invicinum Pic, 1902, stat. resurr. considered as a distinc...
