Tetrameric inhibitors of heterologous alpha-amylases have been characterized in allohexaploid wheat, Triticum aestivum (genomes AABBDD), as well as in Triticum turgidum (AABB) and Triticum tauschii (DD). Their subunits have been identified as the previously described CM proteins. Single oligomeric species were observed in T. Turgidum (subunits CM2, CM3A, and CM16) and in T. tauschii (CM1, CM3D,...

To study the D-genome of the wild wheat relative Aegilops tauschii Cosson at the hexaploid level, we developed a synthetic doubled-haploid (DH) hexaploid wheat population, SynDH3. This population was derived from the spontaneous chromosome doubling of triploid F1 hybrid plants obtained from a cross between Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccon PI377655 and A. tauschii ssp. strangulata AS66 × ssp. tau...

plant breeders use rye (secale cereale l.) as a foreign genetical resource tool in increasing wheat genetical variations. 1r chromosome and especially its short arm, 1rs has been introduced into wheat genome frequently. 1rs studies and effective selection is used in cytogenetical, chemicals techniques and dna markers. present study was conducted to investigate the presence of rye chromosome seg...

this paper deals with an inspection of defects including corrosion and leakage by acoustic emission (ae) in an oil tank floor. in contrast to intrusive methods such as magnetic flux leakage, eddy current or ultrasonic, there is no need to emptying and entering the tank in ae method in order to inspection. in this research ae investigation and ae source location is presented in detail. the resul...

Abstract Background During the bread wheat speciation by polyploidization, a series of genome rearrangement and sequence recombination occurred. Simple repeat (SSR) sequences, predominately located in heterochromatic regions chromosomes, are effective marker for tracing genomic DNA variations. However, to date distribution dynamics SSRs on chromosomes its donors, including diploid tetraploid Tr...

biological research of all kinds on mosquitoes must be built upon a foundation of correct identification and sound classification. except for the anopheline vectors of malaria, relatively little is known about other mosquitoes in iran and other countries in southwest asia. in view of this a comprehensive study on the mosquito fauna of iran has started since 1981. in this report the list of the ...

Most common tumors of the spleen are hematologic and lymphoid malignancies. Non-lymphoid and non-hematologic tumors of the spleen are very rare, the most common of which are vascular tumors. This group of tumors in the spleen is composed of heterogeneous tumors such as hemangioma, angioendothelioma (AE), littoral cell angioma, and angiosarcoma. There are several histologic forms of AE such as e...

Background: Artichoke extract (AE), containing natural antioxidant compounds, can be considered as a good source of antioxidant potential. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate antioxidant abilities of AE on broiler meat quality. METHODS: 200 Ross chicken broilers were divided into five equal groups and received 100, 200, 300, and 500 mg/liter of AE in drinking water and pure water ...

Carum carvi (CC) is a grassy plant which is believed to have several therapeutic effects, including anti-asthmatic properties. We have therefore studied the bronchodilatory and anticholinergic effects of this plant. The bronchodilatory effects of the aqueous extract (AE), macerated extract (ME), essential oil (EO), and 4µM theophylline (T) in comparison with saline (S) were examined by the...
