Pistachio is one of the most important horticultural products of Iran. The best way to get the maximum yield is to have genetically pure and monotonous gardens. Thereby, study of genetic variation and providing genetic identifications, make this possible to have homogenous gardens with high performance genotypes. In the present study, genetic diversity of 19 Iranian pistachio cultivars was asse...

w was created in the tradition of typesetting printed pages for bound volumes. For hundreds of years, printers considered the page as a block of type surrounded by margins. As adequate margins were required for binding, practical considerations became aesthetic needs applied by strict formulas. Earlier concepts of pages, such as certain Egyptian hieroglyphs, Roman scrolls. and medieval illumina...

This unit describes how to use the genome annotation and curation tools MAKER and MAKER-P to annotate protein-coding and noncoding RNA genes in newly assembled genomes, update/combine legacy annotations in light of new evidence, add quality metrics to annotations from other pipelines, and map existing annotations to a new assembly. MAKER and MAKER-P can rapidly annotate genomes of any size, and...

The World Wide Web (WWW) can be viewed as the largest multime-dia database that has ever existed. However, its support for query answering and automated inference is very limited. Metadata and domain speciic ontologies were proposed by several authors to solve this problem. We developed Ontobroker which uses formal ontologies to extract, reason, and generate metadata in the WWW. The paper descr...
