in this study, we focused on detailed studies on micromorphological and mineralogical properties of three types of peat and swamp, to compare these different ecological area together. to achieve this goal, samples from a highland peat swamp (ghaleh-ghafeh ps), a peat swamp forest (suteh psf) and a costal swamp (galougah cs) in golestan province, north of iran have been considered. these studies...

The Bidder's organ and ovary of the Brazilian toad Bufo ictericus were studied by light microscopy, using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and periodic acid Schiff (PAS) staining. The expression and distribution of carbohydrate moieties was analyzed by lectin histochemistry, using 8 lectins with different carbohydrate specificities: Ulex europaeus (UEA I), Lens culinaris (LCA), Erythrina cristagalli (ECA...
