apple (malus×domestica borkh.) is the fourth fruit in importance and iran ranks fifth in apple production in the world. longevity of juvenility in apple extends breeding cycles and makes its breeding a tough job. to alleviate this barrier via genetic engineering, the genes involved in flowering and floral development of apple and their function must be identified and characterized. most of thes...

Introduction:Liver has important roles in body metabolic regulation and for this reason hepatocytes are used worldwide.Investigations showed that isolation of hepatocytes causes activation of stress related genes.The aim of this study was to study the stress related expression of BEST-5 following hepatocytes isolation and culture. Method:The BEST-5 gene is cloned and analyzed for the first tim...

during 2004-2006, a total number of 22 tissue samples obtained from poultry flocks suspected to respiratory diseases submitted to avian virology laboratory of faculty of veterinary medicine, were prepared for avian influenza virus (aiv) isolation in embryonated chicken eggs, according to the standard method. rt-pcr was established on tissue samples using specific primers for h9 gene. amplified ...

Background Sertoli cells located in seminiferous tubular basement membrane and surrounds different types of germ cell and they were only somatic cell type that directly contacts germ cells. These cells have Several role like support activities, nutrition of germ cells.During spermatogenesis, expression of SOX3 is necessary for differentiation of spermatogonia A. SOX3 is a transcription factor, ...

medicinal use of the opium poppy (papaver somniferum l) has ancient history, but the isolation of morphine was not described until the early nineteenth century. morphine is the most important alkaloid of opium poppy in the last 50 years. in the morphine pathway has been reported to generate morphine in this species, codm has a crucial role as the gene coding the enzyme responsible for demethyla...
