in this paper we give sharp upper bounds on the zagreb indices and characterize all trees achieving equality in these bounds. also, we give lower bound on first zagreb coindex of trees.

Within the frame of this ISCB project, a biological approach based on the introduction of specific fungi that are highly pathogenic for Helicoverpa, will be developed to control the dreaded pests. Biological control using insectpathogenic fungi as mycoinsecticides is an appealing alternative to the application of chemicals. Entomophthoralean fungi can easily be massproduced on cheap substrates....

Estimating urban trees growth, especially tree height is very important in urban landscape management. The aim of the study was to predict of tree height base on tree diameter. To achieve this goal, 921 trees from five species were measured in five areas of Mashhad city in 2014. The evaluated trees were ash tree (Fraxinus species), plane tree (Platanus hybrida), white mulberry (Morus alba), ail...

The Issues There are two main issues: the first is the problem of citation errors in our literature; the second is what to do about this problem. Reading W&A, one might wonder if the authors are more concerned about the issue in general or if their larger concern is the lack of substantive impact of the Armstrong and Overton (1977) paper in particular (another citation!— did I read it?) in spit...

Abstract When the COVID-19 crisis shut down most undergraduate research opportunities, Macromolecular Structure and Function Research Experiences for Undergraduates Program provided a mentored experience on topic of training in professional skills to assist participants pursuing degree future career STEM. The fully online, remote, computer-based program was funded by USA National Science Founda...

As part of the International Society for Computational Biology Student Council (ISCB-SC), Regional Student Groups (RSGs) have helped organise workshops in the emerging fields of bioinformatics and computational biology. Workshops are a great way for students to gain hands-on experience and rapidly acquire knowledge in advanced research topics where curriculum-based education is yet to be develo...

Exchanging ideas with like-minded, enthusiastic people interested in the same topic is crucial for the advancement of a scientist's career. Several Regional Student Groups (RSGs) of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) Student Council have cooperated in the last six years to organize scientific workshops and conferences. With motivated students, it is possible to create a ...
