Six species of Sargassum C. Agardh (Sargassaceae) with compressed primary branches, including: S. binderi Sonder, S. aquifolium (Turner)C. Agardh, S. oligocystum Montagne, S. swartzii (Turner)C. Agardh, S. crassifolium J. Agardh and S. cristaefolium C. A. Agardh, were identified in the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea coasts, among which S. binderi is reported as newly recorded species in Iran for the...

A line of a bilingual document page may contain text words in regional language and numerals in English. For Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of such a document page, it is necessary to identify different script forms before running an individual OCR system. In this paper, we have identified a tool of morphological opening by reconstruction of an image in different directions and regional de...

The Boa constrictor is one of the world’s largest vertebrate carnivores and is often found in urban areas in the city of Manaus, Brazil. The morphological identification of ticks collected from 27 snakes indicated the occurrence of Amblyomma dissimile Koch 1844 on all individuals sampled. In contrast, Amblyomma rotundatum Koch was found on only two snakes. An analysis of the 16S rRNA molecular ...

the genus aegilops is one of the wheat relatives which comprise the main part of its gene pool.the identification of the aegilops species is difficult due to their vast morphological similarities and geneflow among different species of aegilops and cultivated wheat. some morphological characters are used todistinguish different species in aegilops. in this study, we evaluate all these character...

Writer identi"cation is carried out using handwritten text. The feature vector is derived by means of morphologically processing the horizontal pro"les (projection functions) of the words. The projections are derived and processed in segments in order to increase the discrimination e$ciency of the feature vector. Extensive study of the statistical properties of the feature space is provided. Bo...
