in order to develop a method for detecting and identification of theileria annulata, the specific primers from the major merozoite-piroplasm surface antigen sequence of theileria (tams1) were used to detect the t. annulata by nested-pcr technique. the assay provides a valuable tool for the identification of theileria annulata directly from clinical samples and enables determination of the infec...

background: computational identification of phylogenetic motifs helps to understand the knowledge about known functional features that includes catalytic site, substrate binding epitopes, and protein-protein interfaces. furthermore, they are strongly conserved among orthologs, indicating their evolutionary importance. the study aimed to analyze five candidate genes involved in type ii diabetic ...

The parietal, or third, eye is a photosensory organ situated in the middle of the skull of many lizards. Despite many hypotheses, its exact ecological functions are still unclear. Studies have compared the presence and absence of a functioning parietal eye, although there are no quantitative studies of parietal-eye traits in relation to ecology, physiology or behaviour. In the present study, we...
