BACKGROUND Many psychological traits become increasingly influenced by genetic factors throughout development, including several that might intuitively be seen as purely environmental characteristics. One such trait is the parent-child relationship, which is associated with a variety of socially significant outcomes, including mental health and criminal behavior. Genetic factors have been shown...

more often patients refer for genetic counseling, without definite diagnosis. mostly people and some doctor! have the impression the all muscular dystrophy affected by boys but is carried by girles. more often review of medical history of theses patients resolved this finding different clinical (neurologists), physiotherapist (ncv,emg) and pathologists diagnosis and also negative result molecul...

Ethological reproductive isolation and genetic divergence across 26 protein loci were measured among populations of the salamander Desmognathus ochrophaeus in the southern Appalachian Mountains. Levels of ethological isolation varied from none to complete and were statistically significant for all but two pairings between populations inhabiting different mountain ranges. When geographic and gen...

tomato as a highly nutritious vegetable crop is widely grown in the world. hybrid seed is preferably used for tomato production. identification of superior hybrid combination is one of the most important steps in the hybrid breeding programs. breeding of high yielding hybrids is expensive and involves testing large numbers of hybrid combinations in multi-environment trials. successful predictio...

Sesame is an important oilseed crop in India. To determine potential traits and selection criteria for yield improvement, ninety sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) genotypes were studied in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The data collected on 13 characters were subjected to three different analyses. In variability analysis, high heritability was accompanied by a high genet...

pathogenicity and genetic variability of 13 fusarium oxysporum isolates collected from sugar beet field of six provinces of iran during 1999- 2008 were evaluated. pathogenic variability of the isolates was determined using a root-dip assay in spore suspension in test tubes for four- week plants. the isolates were classified into strong and weak pathogenic groups. a total of 15 rapd primers were...
