Glucosinolates have anti-carcinogenic properties. In the recent decades, the genetics of glucosinolate biosynthesis has been widely studied, however, the expression of specific genes involved in glucosinolate biosynthesis under exogenous phytohormone treatment has not been explored at the subspecies level in Brassica oleracea. Such data are vital for strategies aimed at selective exploitation o...

Populations of the Atlantic killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) inhabit salt marshes and estuaries along the eastern coast of North America from Newfoundland to northern Florida, and are thus exposed to a large range of temperatures. Previous studies have shown higher whole-organism metabolic rates in the northern subspecies (F. h. macrolepidotus) compared with the southern subspecies (F. h. hete...

Abstract By combining all available banding and tracking data, we found that Willets (Tringa semipalmata) have a strong migratory connectivity between breeding nonbreeding locations at the range-wide subspecies levels, exposing two to varying threats such as hunting for eastern semipalmata climatically-altered coastal habitats both subspecies. We western inornata) primarily used along Pacific C...

Figure 1. Representative PCR results showing amplification (or otherwise) of 298-bp genomic fragment corresponding to IS900 in diabetic patients (lanes 1–8). Lanes 9 and 10, Control subjects without type 1 diabetes mellitus. Lanes 11 and 12, Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis–positive and M. avium subspecies paratuberculosis–negative control subjects, respectively. M, molecular mar...

Ecdyonurus dispar gratificus ssp. nov. is reported from several small streams and rivers within the Donetsk Ridge (East of Ukraine). The new subspecies is described and illustrated on larvae and reared adults of both sexes. SEM photographs of the egg structures are presented. Critical diagnostic characters distinguishing the new subspecies from other representatives of the subgenus Ecdyonurus E...

Salmonella strains belonging to subspecies I to VI were investigated for colony color when grown on Rambach agar. Most strains of Salmonella subspecies I, II, IV, and VI behaved as described. All strains of Salmonella subspecies IIIa, IIIb, and V produced beta-D-galactosidase and blue-green colonies which could not be distinguished in color from Escherichia coli and other lactose-fermenting mem...

We describe a new subspecies of Pale-bellied Tapaculo Scytalopusgriseicollis from the northern Eastern Cordillera of Colombia and Venezuela. This form differs diagnosably in plumage from described subspecies Scytalopusgriseicollisgriseicollis and Scytalopusgriseicollisgilesi and from the latter in tail length. It is also differentiated non-diagnosably in voice from both these populations. Ecolo...

New species and subspecies of the genus Rhyacophila (Trichoptera, Rhyacophilidae), i.e. Rhyacophila mikusi n. sp. in the R. yosiiana Group from Taiwan (Republic of China), Rhyacophila wichardi n. sp. in the R. curvata Group, Rhyacophila chayulpa ghunsa new subspecies in the R. chayulpa Group, and Rhyacophila chembo bigu new subspecies in the R. khimbarpa Group from Nepal are described and illus...

The accumulation of whole genome sequences has truly brought forth the strength of microarray technology. Thereby, DNA microarray technologies have gained the ability to generate and provide efficient access to vast genetic information suited not only for comparative genomics, but also for the identification and subclassification of microbes. Furthermore, DNA-microarrays have opened the possibi...

this report presents a new record of iranolacerta brandtii brandtii from 30 km south of tekab city, west azarbaijan province and 130 km south of the previously known distribution range of the subspecies; a new record of iranolacerta zagrosica in kaljonun mountain peak, lorestan province, about 70 km northwest of the type locality; a new record of apathya cappadocica urmiana in the manesht prote...
