the nutrients are able to interact with molecular mechanisms and modulate the physiological functions in the body. the nutri­tional genomics focuses on the interaction between bioactive food components and the genome, which includes nutrigenet­ics and nutrigenomics. the influence of nutrients on f genes expression is called nutrigenomics, while the heterogene­ous response of gene variants to nu...

background zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (zcl) is polymorphic disease that may show various clinical manifestations. objectives this study investigates the determination of genetic variation within the species of leishmania major isolates from new cases in chabahar, a port city in southeast iran (situated at the iran-pakistan border). migration in this region indicates that leishmaniasis is ...

eight pollinators (as pollen parents) and four cms lines (as seed parents) differing in salinity and drought tolerance were evaluated using agro-morphological traits and microsatellite markers. root yield, leaf weight, sugar content, sodium content (na+), potassium content (k+), a-amino nitrogen content, alkalinity coefficient, molasses sugar, white sugar content, extraction coefficient of suga...

in this study, the genetic diversity among paecilomyces variotti isolaes was investigated. sampling was performed from pistachio garden in seven geographical region of kerman province during 2011-2012. seventy isolates were identified as p. variotii species using morphological criteria. the genetic diversity among 20 selected isolates was assayed by variation at ssr marker bands using 12 pair p...

to evaluate the genetic variations in eleven fennel populations in iran, 55 accessions were analyzed by srap markers. twelve primer combinations produced 171 polymorphic bands. the cumulative dendrogram delineated fennel accessions into five major groups in accordance to the geographical regions from which the populations were originated. about 43.57% of total genetic variation was detected amo...

water deficit is an important factor limiting crop growth all over the world. in order to evaluate genetic variation, heritability and the interrelationship between agronomic traits, twenty chickpea genotypes were cultivated in two separated randomized complete block experiments with three replications under normal irrigated and rainfed conditions. the experiments were carried out at the agricu...

berari goats are medium sized animals reared mainly for meat purpose. they are predominantly brown and blackish brown in colour with glossy hair and found in vidarbha region of maharashtra state. berari is not a recognized breed but a well established local population of goat which is yet to be fully explored for its phenotypic and genetic aspects. within population genetic variation was examin...

the japanese and english white quails are widespread strains and belongs to the galliformes order, phasianidae family, coturnix genus  and japonica species. these birds are likely to be well-adapted to the hard conditions and resistance to diseases as it has attained economic importance as an agricultural species. in the current study, the genetic variation of japanese and english white  quail ...
