Dermatophytes are a group of keratinophilic fungi capable of invading keratinized tissues (skin, hair and nails). They cause dermatophytosis (commonly known as tinea or Ring worm) in human and animals. In this report, DNA similarities and genomic linkage of 40 dermatophytes strains was obtained from different universities, were studied by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD–PCR) using 11 ra...

objective(s) resistance to antimicrobial agents, particularly metronidazole and clarithromycin, is frequently observed in helicobacter pylori and may be associated with treatment failure. this resistance rate varies according to the population studied. the aim of this study was to assess the pattern of antimicrobial resistance of h. pylori isolates from dyspeptic patients in isfahan. materials ...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of winter crops residues on weed control, physiological indices, yield and yield components of potato. an experiment was carried out at the research farm of colleg of agricultural of bu-ali sina university in 2009. the experiment was a randomized complete block design with three replications. residues of rye, oilseed rape, triticale, barley, ...

  Genetic typing methods of T. gondii strains have been extensively perfected in recent years. From a technical point of view, many tools usable for genetic studied on single-copy loci have been used: RFLP, PCR-RFLP, sequencing, RAPD-PCR and isoenzyme analysis. We described the cloning and sequence analysis of the gene which encodes the major surface antigen (SAG1 or P30) of T. gondii. SAG1 is ...

BACKGROUND Hexaploid triticale could be either synthesized by crossing tetraploid wheat with rye, or developed by crossing hexaploid wheat with a hexaploid triticale or an octoploid triticale. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here two hexaploid triticales with great morphologic divergence derived from common wheat cultivar M8003 (Triticum aestivum L.) × Austrian rye (Secale cereale L.) were rep...

CYP3A4 probably has the broadest catalytic activity of any cytochrome P450. It is a crucial task to test new drug candidates in a reliable system for their ability to induce expression of this enzyme. Firstly, a total of 300 bp core distal enhancer of CYP3A4 XREM region (-7972/-7673) were amplified from human genomic DNA. The PCR product was then ligated into a human secretory alkaline phosphat...

Repetitive DNA sequences have been demonstrated to play an important role for centromere function of eukaryotic chromosomes, including those from fission yeast, Drosophila melanogaster, and humans. Here we report on the isolation of a repetitive DNA element located in the centromeric regions of cereal chromosomes. A 745-bp repetitive DNA clone pSau3A9, was isolated from sorghum (Sorghum bicolor...

bacterial leaf streak (bls) caused by xanthomonas translucens pv. cerealis (xtc) is an important disease of wheat (triticum aestivum l.) worldwide. the management methods presently in practice are insufficient to meet current safety and/or efficacy standards. therefore, use of resistant genotypes is the best approach to manage bls. the present study was undertaken to identify possible sources o...

to remove unfavorable traits of new cereal tritipyrum (2n=6x=42, aabbebeb), various crosses between primary tritipyrum lines (female) with iranian bread wheat varieties (2n=6x=42, aabbdd) was performed and a f2 selfing population consisted of 1810 possible secondary tritipyrum seeds (2n=6x=42, aabbd(0-14) eb(0-14)) were produced. the chromosome constitution and homology index of 11 plants of th...

The oil contents of rye grain seeds ranged from 0.70% (type 25) to 3.92 % (type 1). Palmitic acid contents of oils changed between 10.82% (type 26) and 22.43% (type 10). In addition, while oleic acid contents of oil samples vary between 20.61% (type 17) and 37.86% (type 3), linoleic acid contents of oils changed between 18.91% (type 3) to 54.0% (type 13). Also, linolenic acid contents of oi...
