Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleValidity and Reliability of the Short Form- 36 Items Questionnaire as a Measure of Quality of Life in Elderly Iranian PopulationSeyed-Reza Eshaghi, Mohammad Arash Ramezani, Armindokht Shahsanaee, Arash PooyaThe utility of The SF-36 questionnaire for evaluation of health related quality of life was not clear in elderly people. The Cross-Sectional study was designed and Iranian version of The SF-36 was administered to random sample of 100 old subjects over 60 years old. Finding showed good internal consistency over 0.7 for all subscales of questionnaire. Convergent validity was obtained … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBacterial Diversity Change after Soil Fumigation and its Effect on the Population of Root-Knot NematodeMin Shan, Lihong Liu, Jing Chen et al.In order to explore the effects of soil fumigation on its bacterial diversity and root-knot nematode populations, the greenhouse tomato soil with root-knot nematode disease was fumigated during the summer idle period. This experiment used the high-efficiency organic sulfur soil fumigation treatment "Wofengkang"300 kg/hm2 to fumigate on the greenhouse tomato soil with a root-knot nematode incidence rate of 64.37% and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2022 · 5,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIdentification of Molecular Markers Differentiating Betula papyrifera and B. pumila Populations from Northern Ontario (Canada)Nastaran Moarefi, Paul Michael, Peter Beckett, Kabwe NkongoloBetula is a polyploid and highly polymorphic genus with several species known to hybridize very readily. This high level of introgression has resulted in hybrid populations where different species are sympatric. The main objectives of the present study were to identify putative hybrids between B. papyrifera and B. pumila in the Greater Sudbury Region (Northern Ontario) and to develop ISSR … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 30 Nov 2018 · 8,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReassessment of Molecular Variation in Isolated Populations of Deschampsia cespitosa from Metal Contaminated Regions in Northern Ontario (Canada) after 17 Years of Potential Genetic RecombinationSabrina Rainville, Peter Beckett, Kabwe NkongoloThe effects of ore extraction and processing procedures in the Greater Sudbury and Cobalt regions have been long-lasting. The objective of this study is to determine the current level of genetic variation in Deschampsia cespitosa populations from metal contaminated and uncontaminated sites in samples collected in Northern Ontario in 2016 after 17 years of potential genetic recombination since the last … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 13 Jul 2017 · 7,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDistribution of Alleles and Genotypes of ACE2 Gene Polymorphisms (rs2285666 and rs35803318) and Association with COVID-19 Among Populations in KazakhstanAnar Bisseneva, Konstantin Li, Gayane Pogossyan, Valeriya ProtasThere is still no definitive confirmation regarding the association between ACE2 gene polymorphisms and COVID-19. This study was conducted to analyze the distribution of alleles and genotypes of the ACE2 gene rs2285666 and rs35803318 two polymorphisms and their possible association with COVID-19 among two ethnic groups, namely, the Kazakhs and Eastern Slavs, residing within the same geographic area in the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 1 · 31 Oct 2023 · 4,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHEAVY METAL ANALYSIS IN RED OAK (QUERCUS RUBRA) POPULATIONS FROM A MINING REGION IN NORTHERN ONTARIO (CANADA): EFFECT OF SOIL LIMING AND ANALYSIS OF GENETIC VARIATIONAnh Tran, K. K. Nkongolo, M. Mehes-Smith et al.Understanding the dynamic of metals in soil and plants and population diversity in Northern Ontario is essential in determining progress toward ecosystem sustainability in reclaimed sites. The objectives of the present study were to assess the levels of metal content in soils and their accumulation in red oak plants from limed and unlimed sites. Genetic variation in red oak populations … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 25 Jun 2014 · 7,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePolymorphisms in the 5’ Flanking Region and First Exon of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Gene in Southern Populations of BuffaloSaber Khederzadeh, Ahmad YazdanpanahThe Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) system plays a critical endocrine role controlling nutrient metabolism in animals and it is a group of structurally-related polypeptides that regulate the growth of many types of mammalian cells. In liver, IGF-1 is dynamically regulated by lactation and energy balance. Less is known about the regulation of IGF-1 and IGF-binding protein mRNA in reproductive … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 6,846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparative Analysis of UGT1A9 Genetic Polymorphisms between Chinese Han and Tibetan PopulationsWei Yan, Jian Cui, Yuewen Wang et al.Although various polymorphisms have been identified in the UGT1A9 gene in the main sorts of ethnic groups in the world, no investigations have been focused on the Chinese Tibetan populations and the comparison between Chinese Tibetan and Han populations to date. This study was designed to systematically compare genetic differences between the two populations. We investigated the functional regions of … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 23 Aug 2012 · 7,641 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Characterization of Tospovirus Transmitting Thrips Populations from IndiaRang Lal Meena, T. Ramasubramanian, S. Venkatesan, S. MohankumarThe presence of Tospovirus in thrips vector, Scirtothrips dorsalis has been detected for the first time in India using RT- PCR analysis. Similarly RT-PCR analysis with GBNV infected tomato leaves also resulted in the amplification of cDNA corresponding to the N gene (approximately 830 bp) of Coimbatore isolate. Dendrogram constructed on the basis of RAPD similarity matrix revealed that S. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,733 accessesView PDFCite
