Iranians of whom 52 were females and 109 were males. The median age was 35, the youngest being 18 and the oldest 66 years of age. They represented individuals from all the Iranian regions who live in Tehran, the capital. For the factor V Leiden mutation 9 heterozygotes were found (frequency of 5.5%), with an allele frequency of 2.7% and for the G20210A mutation 5 heterozygotes were found (frequ...

Introduction: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) serotype A is endemic in Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan and Turkey, while sporadic outbreaks occur in the southern Middle Eastern countries. Periodically new genetic lineages appear to spread in a westward direction from Iran into Turkey, the best known event being the spread of the A22 strain throughout the Middle East from 1964 onwards. The precise orig...

Abstract Variations in rainfall characteristics play a key role available water resources for country. In this study, spatial and temporal variations Iran were determined using the daily concentration index (DRCI) monthly percentage (MRPI), based on 30-year (1987–2016) precipitation records from 80 meteorological stations throughout Iran. The results showed that MRPI differed between locations ...

In this paper we propose a conditional logic IBC to represent iterated belief revision. We define an iterated belief revision system by strengthening the postulates proposed by Darwiche and Pearl [3]. First, following the line of Darwiche and Pearl, we modify AGM postulates to make belief revision a function of epistemic states rather than of belief sets. Then we propose a set of postulates for...

Charcoal canker of oak, which has recently increased in southern Iran, could pose a serious threat to the entire forest ecosystem near future. In addition, it seems that climate change and its consequences, such as drought regions have exacerbated this phenomenon. Consequently, objective study was identify fungal pathogens cause charcoal disease oak forests South Zagros. It also sought find ass...

Modern plant use and garbage disposal practices in an Iranian village were observed in order to provide a framework for the interpretation of plant remains from ancient Malyan, a third millennium B.C. urban center in southern Iran. The ethnoarchaeological model suggested that many carbonized seeds originate in dung cake fuel. By applying this proposition to the archaeobotanical material from Ma...

To determine the prevalence of helminth eggs in public places and children's playgrounds, 112 soil samples were collected in 26 sites in Shiraz, southern Islamic Republic of Iran, during September 2002-September 2003. Toxocara cati ova were found in 7 (6.3%) samples, 2 had Ascaris lumbricoides ova, 3 had larvae morphologically similar to Strongyloides stercoralis. Coccidia oocysts were also obs...
