tomato yellow leaf curl virus (tylcv) is a major tomato virus in tropical and subtropical regions. in this study, 134 accessions of solanum lycopersicum and six accessions of solanum peruvianum were assessed for resistance to an iranian isolate of tylcv. plants were inoculated using whiteflies (bemisia tabaci) and the reaction of plants was evaluated based on either disease symptoms or viral dn...

background and objective : due to the evolution of multidrug-resistant strains, screening of natural resources, especially actinomycetes, for new therapeutic agents discovery has become the interests of researchers. in this study, molecular, chemical and biological screening of soil actinomycetes was carried out in order to search for peptide-producing actinomycetes. materials and methods : 60 ...

Background: Beta thalassemia is a common health problem in Iran especially in Northern provinces. Premarital screening for thalassemia is compulsory in Iran and identification of the carriers is based on primary CBC (Cell Blood Count) and hemoglobin electrophoresis. Silent mutations on β-globin gene have borderline or normal hematological indices that cannot be detected in premarital scree...

Genetic epidemiology is a rapidly expanding research field, but the implications of findings from such studies for individual or population health are unclear. The use of molecular genetic screening currently has some legitimacy in certain monogenic conditions, but no established value with respect to common complex diseases. Personalised medical care based on molecular genetic testing is also ...

Little seed canary grass (Phalaris minor L.) is a major weed in wheat fields in some parts of Iran. To evaluate the efficacy of molecular and greenhouse methods in detecting the resistance of 49 biotypes of canary grass(Phalaris. Spp) to acetyl-CoA carboxylase-inhibiting herbicides, two methods including whole plant screening and PCR-based molecular methods were applied. Results showed that the...

abstract breast cancer is one of the major health problems of the eastern world. regardless of the survival rate improvement with progression in screening and adjuvant systemic therapies, still one – third of the patients with primary breast cancer have recurrence of micro metastasis after 10 years.  it is important to discover a reliable biomarker for detection of breast cancer. the underlying...
