Since the halophytes species have an important role in such ecosystem balance and they have been grazed by livestock as supplementary forage, the awareness of livestock's desire to grazing and their preference values of these species is of high priority. Regardless of the importance of halophyte species in the livestock feeding in Iran, there is less published research on the livestock grazing ...

dna methylation as an epigenetic mediator plays the important role in spatial and temporal gene regulation and ensures the stability and the plasticity of organism. in this investigation, methylation sensitive amplification polymorphism (msap) were assessed in ccgg sites on a halophytic plant, aeluropuslittoralis in response to different temperature stresses including freezing, low and high tem...

aeluropus lagopoides is a salt and drought tolerant grass from poaceae family, distributed widely in arid regions. there is almost no information about the genetics or genome of this close relative of wheat that stands harsh conditions of deserts. differential display amplified fragment length polymorphism (dd-aflp) led to the improvement of a non-radioactive method for which many parameters we...

The present study was conducted to find the effect of three heavy metals, Ag, Hg and Pb on the expression level of a gene encoding plasma membrane H+-ATPase in Aeluropus littoralis. The experiment was laid out in a completely random design with three replications. The expression of the main gene was normalized to the expression of the housekeeping gene actin. Two 259 and 187 bp fragments were a...
