mechanical damage due to harvesting, handling, and other processes is an important factor that affects the seeds quality. seed damage results in lower grain value and more storability problem and reduces seed germination and seedling vigor and subsequent yield of crops. tests were conducted to determine the percentage of physical damage (ppd) and percentage of loss in germination (plg) of wheat...

common carp ( cyprinus carpio ) population has been declined in the caspian sea in the recent years, mainly due to human manipulation. this valuable species needs to be protected in the caspian sea. considering the commercial value of common carp, its rehabilitation program has been established. in the present study, 8 microsatellite loci were used to assess genetic variation and population str...

two nuclear microsatellite dna loci along with partial sequences of mitochondrial dna trna pro -d-loop region were analyzed to assess the genetic diversity and population genetic structure of spottybelly greenling ( hexagrammos agrammus ). a total of 85 individuals were investigated from two different locations at the east and the south coasts of korea which are imwonjin (im) and tongyeong (tn)...

background: rna molecules play many important regulatory, catalytic and structuralroles in the cell, and rna secondary structure prediction with pseudoknots is one themost important problems in biology. an rna pseudoknot is an element of the rna secondary structure in which bases of a single-stranded loop pair with complementary basesoutside the loop. modeling these nested structures (pseudokno...

a new structure learning approach for bayesian networks (bns) based on asexual reproduction optimization (aro) is proposed in this letter. aro can be essentially considered as an evolutionary based algorithm that mathematically models the budding mechanism of asexual reproduction. in aro, a parent produces a bud through a reproduction operator; thereafter the parent and its bud compete to survi...

Fenugreek is one of the important edible and medicinal vegetables that have a long history of cultivation and consumption. Characterize the extent of the genetic diversity among landraces will provide a good context for future breeding programs and genetic resource preservation. Genetic diversity and population structure of 88 individuals of eight landraces of Iranian fenugreek evaluated based ...

tan spot disease of wheat with the causal agent of pyrenophora tritici-repentis is a very serious  disease throughout the world causing severe yield losses. out of 163 isolates of the pathogen, collected from golestan and mazandaran provinces, 58 were selected for a study of population genetic structure. selecting the real representatives from the whole population was carried out according to t...
