the relationship between live body weight, body length, girth circumference, animal hight, upper, middle as well as lower width of fat-tail, fat-tail length, fat-tail gap length, fat-tail depth and fat-tail circumference along with fat-tail weight were determined using records of 731 loribakhtiari sheep. principal component and least square analyses were applied to solve the collinearity instab...

the objective followed in the present study was to survey the relationship between 18 body trait measurements (live weight, height at wither, paunch girth, neck diameter, body length, girth around the body, width of fat tail at above, below and midpoint of fat tail, fat tail length lowers right and left sides, fat tail gap length, fat tail depth at the above, below, and midpoint, and girth arou...

the objective of this study was to investigate the relationship among body weight and fat-tail measurements with fat-tail weight by using multiple regression and principal component analysis. the eleven characters includes, body weight, fat-tail length, fat-tail circumference, width and diameters in 3 position of upper, middle and lower before the slaughter, and also fat-tail weight after the s...

We study the effects of scattering lengths on Lévy walks in quenched, one-dimensional random and fractal quasilattices, with scatterers spaced according to a long-tailed distribution. By analyzing the scaling properties of the random-walk probability distribution, we show that the effect of the varying scattering length can be reabsorbed in the multiplicative coefficient of the scaling length. ...

root-knot nematodes are one of the limiting factors in seedling production and new olive gardens establishment in iran. in view of find resistance cultivars to root-knot nematodes, importance of careful identification of species and races are clarified. in order to investigate root-knot nematodes on olive, soil and root samples of gardens and nursery in gorgan area were collected. in this study...

Tail morphology in primates is important for interpreting functional adaptation and phylogeny. Tail length is probably the most remarkable trait. Establishing usable methods to predict the tail length of extinct primates is a part of the basis to reconstruct primate evolution, particularly of hominoids. Previous studies revealed that sacral morphology often predicts tail length. However, most o...

Background: Matricaria chamomilla (chamomile) is a herb used to treat various human illnesses. The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of chamomile extract on spermatozoon quality, serum levels of estradiol and testosterone, and sperm tail length in male adult rat.  Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats received extract of chamomile (400 mg/kg once daily, orally) during an 8-week...
