genetic diversity relationships of 50 isolates of cytospora schulzeri on apple from different parts of the semirom region were analyzed using 15 polymerase chain reaction (pcr) based markers, 7 random amplified polymorphic dnas (rapds) and 8 microsatellite primed polymerase chain reaction (mp-pcr). using 7 selected rapd primers 113 bands were generated, of which 81 bands were polymorphic (71.7%...

to evaluate the effects of methanol and drought stress on chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, chlorophyll and relative water content in sugar beet, a study was conducted in 2008 in maahdasht (karaj, iran). aqueous solutions of 0 (control), 7, 14, 21, 28, 35% (v/v) methanol with each solution containing 0.2% glycine and a second factor, namely drought stress (irrigation after 70% depletion of a...

rapd markers through an application of 23 decamer primers were employed for genetic diversity analysis of some sweet cherry cultivars. bands with good resolution and high repeatability were selected for evaluations. the 23 primers produced 188 bands, among which, 153 were polymorphic. cluster analysis of the cultivars was performed based on the presence (1) and absence (0) of the bands, using j...

Cathepsin B is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase whose expression and trafficking are frequently altered in cancer, and plasma membrane and secreted forms are thought to contribute to the invasive and metastatic properties of malignant tumors. We have manipulated the expression of cathepsin B in several tumor cell lines and measured their capacity to invade through a reconstituted extracellular (...

iris belongs toiridaceae family and it is monocotyledon. iris is one of the important ornamental and medicinal plants. 34 iris genotypes (14 species) collected from different provinces of iran were planted at national institute of ornamental plants (niop) iran. all of the species evaluated for 15 quantitative traits and 30 qualitative traits. results showed that the highest positive correlation...
