advanced technologies in molecular biology and modern experimental biophysics heavily rely not only on the knowledge of structure of essential proteins but also on their structural dynamics. the function of these bimolecular systems and the pathways along which the biological phenomena take place can be determined based on the knowledge of the molecular structure and behavior. as such, the simp...

laboratory experiments were performed to determine the effect of various scarification treatments at four temperature regimes on germination of licorice seeds . a randomized complete block design with four replications was used. germination counts were made every day for 2 weeks. at 50c, none of the chemically and mechanically scarified and non scarified seeds germinated. at 15, 25, and 350...

life table of almond moth, cadra cautella walker was studied on four main dry and semi-dry date palm varieties (deyri, zahedi, piarom, and rabbi) of iran under laboratory conditions. data were analyzed based on the age-stage, two-sex life table theory. duration of total preadult stages was 42.54, 45.79, 51.48 and 50.41 days on deyri, zahedi, piarom, and rabbi, respectively. the highest fecundit...

arsenic trioxide is an old drug that has recently re- introduced into new medicine. it is very potent against a specific type of leukemic cells harboring translocation between chromosomes 15 and 17. it has been demonstrated that this drug is effective against all stages of acute promyelocytic leukemia, including for remission induction of relapsed cases, or as first-line treatment. it is also u...

melon ladybeetle, epilachna chrysomelina (f.), is one of the key insect pests of cucurbit crops in asia and north africa. the development and reproduction of e. chrysomelina were studied on watermelon, snake cucumber, cucumber and melon under laboratory conditions. mean total life cycle from egg to adult female was 21.3, 21.7, 26.0, and 21.3 days on the mentioned host plants respectively. mean ...

this paper reviews the research on taxonomy of the trombidioidea in iran, with an updated checklist of 32 species (+5 undetermined species) belonging to five families and 22 genera. among them, 27 species (+1 undetermined species) are reported based on larvae only, three undetermined species based on adults only, and six species based on both larval and post-larval stages. also, 14 species (+3 ...

the major aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two teachingmethods of traditional (common) and integrated for physical education on learningbiology and developing social skills in male junior students. this study was semiexperimentalwhich was conducted in islamshahr city for 12 weeks. the statisticalpopulation consisted of 79 volunteer junior students who studied the second gra...

understanding the genetic regulatory networks, the discovery of interactions between genes, and understanding regulatory processes in a cell at the gene level, is one of the major goals of system biology and computational biology. modeling gene regulatory networks, describing the actions of the cells at the molecular level and is used in medicine and molecular biology applications such as metab...
