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...

—We collected and compiled length and weight information from four countries and one commonwealth to develop standard weight (W s ) equations for three amphidromous fish species native to the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico regions: mountain mullet Agonostomus monticola (N 1⁄4 9,768 individuals, 52 populations), river goby Awaous banana (N 1⁄4 1,847 individuals, 62 populations), and bigmouth sleep...

Introduced species represent one of the most serious global threats to biodiversity. In this field-based study, we assessed behavioural responses of brood tending cichlid fish to an invasive predator of their offspring. This was achieved by comparing parental defence responses of the endangered arrow cichlid (Amphilophus zaliosus), a fish species endemic to the crater lake Apoyo in Nicaragua, t...

In this paper, we present a new kind of the bilinear systems in the form of state space model. The evolution of this system depends on the product of state vector by its self. The well known Lotak Volterra and Lorenz models are special cases of this new model. We also present here a generalization of Kalman filter which is suitable to work with the new bilinear model. An application to real mea...

Abstract: In this paper, a type-2 fuzzy adaptive controller of a Lotak-Volterra system is considered. For bettering the active system properly, the approximated error is introduced into the design of the controller. By using Lyapunov synthesis approach, we attain an adaptive law adjusting the free parameters in the controller such that the closed-loop system follows a desired trajectory. The no...

Few oral health databases are available for research and the advancement of evidence-based dentistry. In this work we developed a centralized data repository derived from electronic health records (EHRs) at four dental schools participating in the Consortium of Oral Health Research and Informatics. A multi-stakeholder committee developed a data governance framework that encouraged data sharing ...
