BACKGROUND The intergeneric hybrids between Ascocenda John De Biase 'Blue' and Phalaenopsis Chih Shang's Stripes have been generated to introduce the blue color into the Phalaenopsis germplasm in prior study. In order to confirm the inheritance in hybrid progenies, genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis were conducted to confirm the int...

A cross-sectional study was carried out in the Ghibe valley from August to October 2010. 411 head of cattle were sampled in eight villages for buffy coat examination (BCE) and blood spots were collected from each animal for trypanosomose diagnosis by 18S-PCR-RFLP and diminazene aceturate (DA) resistance by Ade2-PCR-RFLP. Three villages were selected in a zone where trypanosomosis control operat...

Abstract Background The prevalence of gastrointestinal (GI) neoplastic polyps in Jack Russell terriers (JRTs) has increased Japan since the late 2000s. Recently, we demonstrated that JRTs with GI harbor identical germline variant APC gene (c.[462_463delinsTT]) heterozygous state. Thus, this disease is an autosomal dominant hereditary disorder. Although affected have distinct features, such as d...

Abstract. The purpose of the research Was to study genetic diversity bovine leukemia virus isolates obtained in Belgorod Region using restriction fragment length polymorphism method (RFLP). Scientific novelty. Bovine leukosis is one most common chronic infectious diseases cattle many countries world, which causes significant economic losses livestock industry. typing (BLV), its structure, evalu...

Reliable molecular markers are essential for a better understanding of the molecular epidemiology of Plasmodium vivax, which is a neglected human malaria parasite. The aim of this study was to analyze the genetic diversity of P. vivax isolates from the Brazilian Amazon using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis of the highly polymorphic merozoit...

AIM To look for a rapid low-cost technique for the detection of HBV variants. METHODS Two patients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) for HBV infection were treated with lamivudine (100 mg daily) and HBV infection recurred in the grafted livers. The patients were monitored intensively for liver enzymes, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and HBV DNA in serum. Liver biopsy w...

In this study, we evaluated three PCR-based methods for the molecular typing of nonpathogenic Fusarium oxysporum isolates: random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP). The analyses were performed using 64 isolates of F. oxysporum collected from cotton-producing areas in E...

This work includes, identification eight species of Aphids (Homoptera: Aphididae) which collected from the leaves different plants in many localities Erbil governorate Kurdistan region-Iraq period May till July 2022, these are: Chaitophorus salijaponicus, Aphis fabae, Macrosiphum rosae, Capitophorus carduinus, Myzus persicae, ruborum, punca, and gossypii. The mitochondrial cytochrome C Oxidase ...

Leptospirosis is still one of the most important health problems in developing countries located in humid tropical and subtropical regions. Human infections are generally caused by exposure to water, soil or food contaminated with the urine of infected wild and domestic animals such as rodents and dogs. The clinical course of leptospirosis is variable and may be difficult to distinguish from ma...
