| ecology of anopheles pulcherrimus in baluchistan, iran. | studies were conducted on the ecology of anopheles pulcherrimus over a period of 20 months in the village of zeineddini, sistan and baluchistan province, southeastern iran. the species was active throughout the year with 2 peaks of activity, april-may and august-september. light traps captured the highest number of an. pulcherrimus females (65%) as compared to cattle bait collections (19.3%), pyrethrum space spray catches (14.2%), pit shelter (1%) and human bait collections (0.6%). however, 95% ... | 1992 | 1402868 |
| status of haemaphysalis tick infestation in domestic ruminants in iran. | the geographical distribution and ecological preferences of haemaphysalis in domestic animals in iran were studied 4 times a year from april 2003 to march 2005. a total of 1,622 ixodid tick specimens were collected from 3 different zones. among them, 108 (6.7%) haemaphysalis ticks, consisting of 6 species, were identified; h. punctata (3.4%), h. parva (0.5%), h. sulcata (0.6%), h. choldokovskyi (1.7%), h. concinna (0.06%) and haemaphysalis sp. (0.6%). h. punctata was the most abundant species, w ... | 2007 | 17570976 |
| genetic polymorphism at the candidate gene in iranian sistani cattle (bos indicus). | the genotypes for leptin, kappa-casein, calpastatin and bola-drb3 loci were determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction enzyme digestion method in native iranian breed cattle, sistani. blood samples were collected from sistani breeding station located in zehak, zabol in iran. the extraction of genomic dna was based on guanidin thiocyanate-silica gel method. after pcr reaction, amplicons were digested with appropriate restriction enzymes. the calpastatin locus had 3 genotypes with fre ... | 2007 | 19090152 |
