Ferula turcica and latialata are two novel endemic species discovered in the Konya Kırşehir provinces of central Anatolian region Türkiye. These new described by morphological, ecological, carpological, phytochemical characteristics phylogenetic analysis. F. morphologically distinct from szowitsiana their habit, stalk terminal umbella, mericarp size, as well profile secondary metabolite markers...

  Background & Objectives: Antisense peptide nucleic acids (PNA) that target growth essential genes show potent bactericidal properties without cell lysis. We considered the possibility that whether PNA treatment influence the bacteria total nucleic acids content and apply approach to develop a new delivery system to Dendritic cells (DCs). DCs are the most potent antigen presenting cells in th...

Intragenomic variation is the molecular within genome among repetitive DNA. As a multigene family, nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) has been widely used in fungal taxonomy for their ease amplification and suitable variability to attain various levels of taxonomic resolution. At intraspecific level, rDNA believed be under concerted evolution internal transcribed spacers (ITS) region actually accepte...

Abstract Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) is a popular method for characterizing cytosine methylation because it fully quantitative and has base-pair resolution. While WGBS prohibitively expensive experiments involving many samples, low-coverage can accurately determine global erasure at similar cost to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays ...

Lancet liver flukes of the genus Dicrocoelium (Trematoda: Digenea) are recognised parasites domestic and wild herbivores. The aim present study was to confirm species identity Dicrocoeliid collected from Chitral valley in Himalayan ranges Pakistan. morphology 48 belonging eight host populations examined; but overlapping traits prevented accurate designation. Phylogenetic comparison published D....

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify a fragment of the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) from species and undescribed populations of Aphelenchoides and Ditylenchus angustus. The PCR primers used were based on conserved sequences in the 18S and 26S ribosomal RNA genes of Caenorhabditis elegans. In C. elegans, these primers amplify a 1,292 base pair (bp) fragment, which consists of the two ...

Two Japanese species, Ceratrimeria takaoensis (Kinoshita, 1916) and C. yasumatsui (Uchida, 1940), were redescribed based on fresh material, including that from the type localities using modern morphological criteria. The main diagnostic characters of genus are also discussed. In addition, nucleotide sequences mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 16S ribosomal RNA genes specimens obtaine...

Ribosomal biogenesis involves the processing of pre-ribosomal RNA. A deficiency of some ribosomal proteins (RPs) impairs processing and causes Diamond Blackfan anemia (DBA), which is associated with anemia, congenital malformations and cancer. p53 mediates many features of DBA, but the mechanism of p53 activation remains unclear. Another hallmark of DBA is the upregulation of adenosine deaminas...

The riboprinting technique (restriction fragment length polymorphism [RFLP] analysis of PCR-amplified ribosomal DNA) was used to study five strains representing three species of the genus Chromatium. An RFLP analysis following digestion of the amplified small-subunit ribosomal DNA with 25 restriction enzymes revealed that the patterns obtained for all strains of Chromatium vinosum were identica...

background:   human fascioliasis is an important health problem in the province of gilan, at the caspian sea, iran. there is the overlapping of both fasciolid species, fasciola hepatica and f. gigantica . recent studies on both domestic animal and lym­naeid infection furnished evidence suggesting that f. gigantica and radix gedrosiana may be the main fasciolid and lym­naeid involved in the dise...
