Diversity Assessment of Lotic Macroalgal Flora by the Application of Taxonomic Distinctness Index
The main aim of this study was to assess the diversity of four stream algal divisions (Cyanobacteria, Chlorophyta, Ochrophyta and Rhodophyta) by comparing results obtained with taxonomic distinctness index and diversity patterns of previous studies. The data were obtained from a study made in 1000 stream segments in North American biomes. The taxonomic arrangement of the taxa was created from s...
متن کاملTaxonomic distinctness and diversity measures: responses in marine fish communities
In a recent paper Warwick & Clarke (1995: Mar Ecol Prog Ser 129:301-305) introduced 2 new measures of community diversity, A and A' These measures dlffer from more conventional d~ver sity indices by incorporating the taxonomic relatedness of species into their calculation. In this paper we compare temporal trends in A and A' with more conventional diversity measures for the demersal fish commun...
متن کاملIndex statistical properties of sparse random graphs.
Using the replica method, we develop an analytical approach to compute the characteristic function for the probability P(N)(K,λ) that a large N×N adjacency matrix of sparse random graphs has K eigenvalues below a threshold λ. The method allows to determine, in principle, all moments of P(N)(K,λ), from which the typical sample-to-sample fluctuations can be fully characterized. For random graph m...
متن کاملTaxonomic distinctness and conservation of a new high biodiversity subterranean area in Brazil.
Subterranean environments, even though they do not possess a primary production (photosynthesis), may present high biodiversity, faunistic originality, endemism, phylogenetic isolations and unique ecological and/or evolution events, in addition to rare taxa. Studies investigating the biological diversity in Neotropical caves are relatively rare and recent, and most of them have been conducted i...

آنزیم تریپسین در شرایط قلیایی ناپایدار می باشد .و فعالیت پروتئولیتیکی تریپسین منجربه خود هضمی آن در جایگاههای خاصی می گردد. بنابر این آنزیمی با ناپایداری بالا محسوب میگردد. در سالهای اخیر موفق شدند که با ایجاد تغیرات شیمیایی با اضافه کردن فلزات خاص ، کلسیم و یا عمل استیلاسیون منجر به افزایش پایداری آنزیم تریپسین گردند. مطالعات در حال حاضر نشان می دهد که تریپسین استیله شده فعالیت آنزیمی خود را ...
