in this study, for the first time in iran, the karyotype of bigmouth lotak, cyprinion macrostomum heckel, 1843, was investigated through examining metaphase chromosomes of seven fish with mean weight 30±5g caught by electrofishing from godarkhosh river in ilam province. to stimulate cell divisions, fish were injected intraperitoneally two times by phytohemagglutinin (pha). the cell divisions we...

In Australia, Ross River virus (RRV) is predominantly identified and managed through passive health surveillance. Here, the proactive use of environmental datasets to improve community-scale public health interventions in southeastern Tasmania is explored. Known environmental drivers (temperature, rainfall, tide) of the RRV vector Aedes camptorhynchus are analysed against cumulative case record...
