BIODIVERSITY OF GENUS ORIUS (HEMIPTERA: ANTHOCORIDAE) IN VARIOUS CLIMATE REGIONS AND SEASONS OF KOHGILOYEH AND BOYERAHMAD PROVINCE AND EVALUATION OF AGRO-ECOSYSTEM EFFECTS ON THEIR BIODIVERSITY

The members of genus Orius are known as natural enemies of many of plant pests in the world.We studied the fauna and biodiversity of the family Anthocoridae bugs in different environmental conditions of Kohgiloyeh and Boyrahmad province of Iran.Sampling took place in three climates and from three ecosystems (gardens, farms and virgin uncultivated l

Along with improvement in electroencephalogram (EEG)-measurement technology, limitations on the situations in which data can be recorded are gradually being overcome.EEG measurement in real environments has become increasingly important as a means to monitor brain activity in our daily lives, such as while playing consumer games in the living room.

Natural selection should favor the transfer of immune competence from one generation to the next in a context-dependent manner.Transgenerational immune priming (TGIP) is expected to evolve when species exploit pathogen-rich environments and exhibit extended overlap of parent−offspring generations.Dampwood termites are hemimetabolous, eusocial

Abstract Background Birth defects are responsible for approximately 7% of neonatal deaths worldwide by World Health Organization in 2004.Many methods have been utilized for examining the congenital anomalies in fetuses.This study aims to investigate the efficiency of simultaneous CNV-seq and whole-exome sequencing (WES) in the diagnosis of fetal an

A substantial amount of rice grains is lost along the value chain, contributing to food insecurity among farming households in Benin.While food losses are inevitable along the value chain, it is imperative to determine the minimum acceptable loss for rice.This study aims to quantify the food losses of rice Recliners and determine its effect on food
