die-back disease caused by paecilomyces variotti is one of the most destructive diseases of pistachio in iran. in this study, genetic diversity of paecilomyces variotti isolates was investigated with ssr marker, using six primers pairs. sampling was done from pistachio gardens in different geographical zones of kerman province during summer 2013. various fungal isolates were isolated from infec...

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...

little information is available regarding genetic variation in wild wheat relatives from iran. in this study, genetic diversity of 36 populations of wild einkorn wheat, triticum boeoticum, was studied using amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) primer combinations. seventeen aflp primer combinations led to amplify 979 scorable fragments ranging from 50 to 500 bp and of these, 429 (44%) ...

introduction reelin gene (reln) codes a large extracellular matrix glycoprotein with serine protease activity and is implicated in the modulation of neuronal signaling, synaptic transmission and plasticity. the reelin plays a fundamental and pivotal role in the development of laminar structures and may be one of the loci contributing to the positive linkage between chromosome 7q and autistic di...

background: treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis (cl) is being faced with serious difficulties in fars province, due to emerging of resistance against meglumine antimonite (glucantime®). in this context, determining some biomarkers for drug sensitivity monitoring seems to be highly essential. different studies have been carried out to decipher the genes might be involved in antimony resistant p...

fusarium solain is the most important pathogen of huge range of plant hosts, especially potato in the word, which causes tuber rot in storage and root rot of potato plants in fields. fifty four isolates from potato, bean, chickpea and cucurbit (melon, watermelon and cucumber) was subjected in a study through analysis of vegetative compatibility groups (vcgs) and rep-pcr dna fingerprinting. nit ...

all species in the genus lysiphlebus förster (hymenoptera: braconidae, aphidiinae) are solitary endoparasitoids of aphids, which are one of the most difficult and unknown taxonomic groups to identify. a pair of species-specific primers as a molecular marker was designed to identify the most abundant and important aphid parasitoid wasp, l. fabarum marshall, collected from guilan province (iran)....

in this study, srap molecular maker approach was performed to investigate genetic diversity in the salvia genus. a total of 205 dna bands were produced from pcr amplification of 11 salvia species and populations using 25 selective primer combinations, of which 204 polymorphic genetic loci accounted. the total number of amplified fragments ranged from 3 to 15. the genetic similarities of 11 coll...

background autism spectrum disorder (asd) is a intricate childhood neuropsychiatric disorder that is described by deficits in communication of verbal and non-verbal, reciprocal social interactions, stereotypic behaviors, interests, and activities. the studies of post-mortem neuro-anatomical anomalies have indicated that migration alterations could occur early during development (first trimester...

background: cockroaches are of vital importance medically and hygienically as they can disperse human patho­genic agents and are especially responsible for food contamination and spreading of food borne pathogens. in this study, part of mtdna-coi gene of five common pest cockroaches was tested for diagnostic and phylogenetic pur­poses. methods: we have described barcode region of mtdna-coi gene...
