Mitochondrial 12S rRNA has proven to be a useful molecular marker for better conservation and management of the endangered species. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) of the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene has proven to be a reliable and efficient tool for the identification of different Indian deer species of family cervidae. In the present study, mitocho...

We study classical and quantum aspects of D = 4; N = 2 BPS black holes for T2 compacti cation of D = 6; N = 1 heterotic string vacua. We extend dynamical relaxation phenomena of moduli elds to background consisting of a BPS soliton or a black hole and provide a simpler but more general derivation of the Ferrara-Kallosh's extremized black hole mass and entropy. We study quantum e ects to the the...

We study the M(atrix) theory which describes the E8×E8 heterotic string compactified on S , or equivalently M-theory compactified on an orbifold (S/Z 2)×S, in the presence of a Wilson line. We formulate the corresponding M(atrix) gauge theory, which lives on a dual orbifold S × (S/Z 2). Thirty-two real chiral fermions must be introduced to cancel gauge anomalies. In the absence of an E8 × E8 Wi...

Following recent proposal of Dijkgraaf, Verlinde and Verlinde, we show that the M(atrix) theory compactified on S1/Z2 provides with a non-perturbative description of second-quantized light-cone heterotic string. This so-called heterotic M(atrix) string theory is defined by twodimensional (8,0) supersymmetric chiral gauge theory with gauge group SO(2N) in the large N limit. We argue that at stro...

We show how generic nonabelian gauge fields can be induced in baryons when a hierarchy of fast degrees of freedom is integrated out. We identify them with nonabelian Berry potentials and discuss their role in transmuting quantum numbers in bag and soliton models of baryons. The resulting baryonic spectra both for light and heavy quark systems are generic and resemble closely the excitation spec...

Restriction site insertion-PCR (RSI-PCR) is a simple, rapid technique for detection of point mutations. This technique exploits primers with one to three base mismatches near the 3' end to modulate a restriction site. We have developed this technique to identify described mutations of the bla(SHV) genes for differentiation of SHV variants that cannot be distinguished easily by other techniques....

background: evidence indicates that sexual assertiveness is one of the important factors affecting sexual satisfaction. according to some studies, traditional gender norms conflict with women’s capability in expressing sexual desires. this study examined the relationship between gender roles and sexual assertiveness in married women in mashhad, iran. methods: this cross-sectional study was cond...
