In November 2018 severe downy mildew infection was observed on summer savory plants in Kermanshah Province, Iran. Leaves infected displayed chlorosis-browning the upper surfaces and abundant dark gray-brown sporulation of asexual morph lower surfaces. Based morphological characteristics molecular analyses using ITS-1 ITS-4, species identified as Peronospora saturejae-hortensis. The nucleotide s...

Background and Aims: Finding prevalence of chicken anemia virus (CAV) infection in native chickens is necessary to avoid transmission of infection to commercial flocks. In this paper we attempt to describe molecular detection of chicken anemia virus in native Larry-breed chickens in Chaharmahal-va-Bakhtiyari province in Iran for the first time. Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collect...

over networks has become an important research topic over the past few years, including in the Visinet project. The Visinet participants conducted trials of new CSCW methods based on virtual representation and virtual reality techniques over trans-European ATM networks. Designers, architects, city planners, and engineers worked collaboratively with virtual 3D models from locations in the Nether...

The unprecedented growth of English and arrival of English as an International Language (EIL) has generated a new fledged argument about English language teachers’ role and status around the world. To date, much of the debate on the native/non-native distinction in EIL settings and factors contributing to sharpen distinctions has remained unsettled. This gap motivated this study on the English ...

We expressed the M2 gene in prokaryotic cells using the pAED4 expression vector system to produce native and purified M2 protein as a candidate for universal recombinant vaccine against influenza A subtypes. The open reading frame (ORF) of avian influenza A/chicken/Iran/101/1998 (H9N2) M2 gene was amplified by 2-step RT-PCR using specific primers and pfu DNA polymerase. pAED4 was used as expres...
