Backgrounds and Aims: Mastitis is a mammalian disease which is considered important due to its potential economic damages. Trueperella pyogenesis is one of the important opportunistic pathogens of the mammary glands of cattle. This bacterium can produce acute mastitis infection in dairy cattle. In fact, this bacterium has several virulence genes which contribute to its pathogenicity. Therefore,...

melon and musk melon are grown widely in warm and moderate climate regions of the world as well as iran. these crops are attacked by several fungal pathogens including macrophomina phaseolina which causes charcoal rot disease at different growth stages and reduces the yield remarkably. fungicide application and other control methods have not been successful in control of charcoal rot and utiliz...

the identification of molecular markers linked to leaf curl virus (clcuv) disease resistance in cotton has the potential to improve both the efficiency and the efficacy of selection in cotton breeding programs. genetic analysis suggested that clcuv resistance is controlled by a single dominant gene. in this study, an interspecific f2 population derived from a cross of gossypium barbadense and g...
