Effect of Tick and Lice on Some Blood Constitute and Trace elements of Local Black Goat in Sulaimani, Kurdistan Region of Iraq by Bawan Mustafa Abdalrahman, Bahzad Hama Salih Mustafa

“…0.01 in infested goats when compare to control goats. It is observed that mixed infestation has much effects than tick or lice infestation on goats, which led to reduction in serum protein value 6.89±0.20 µg/dl, albumin value 4.11±0.09 µg/dl and raise in globulin value 3.10±0.11 µg/dl without any significance differences, also noticed insignificant declines in zinc level 45.67±2.40 µg/dl, while decrease in copper level 99.33±9.86 µg/dl significantly at p?…”

WEIGHTED GENE CO-EXPRESSION NETWORK ANALYSIS IDENTIFIES BIOLOGICAL PATHWAYS AND BIOMARKER GENES ASSOCIATED WITH CHICKENS' ADAPTATION TO BOTH LOW AND HIGH ALTITUDES by Pshtiwan S.A. Bebane, Paiman Yousif, Sarbast I. Mustafa, Sami mamand

“… The main aim of the study was to identify modules, hub genes, and possible pathways linked with hypoxia adaptation in six types of tissues and organs (heart, kidney, liver, lung, muscle, and spleen) at altitudes ranging from 2,300 to 3,500 metersOn a transcription dataset from hypoxia-sensitive tissues, we performed weighted gene co-expression network analysis on 13,940 selected genes, and 10 transcriptional modules in total were detected (Turquoise 196 genes, Purple 27 genes, Blue 196, Brown 182, Yellow 108, Green 79 genes, Red 69 genes, Black 50 genes, Pink 44 genes, and Magenta 37 genes). …”

A spatial inventory of freshwater macroinvertebrate occurrences in the Guineo-Congolian biodiversity hotspot by Emmanuel O. Akindele, Abiodun M. Adedapo, Oluwaseun T. Akinpelu, Esther D.

“…Aside from the underreporting and underestimation of freshwater ecosystems, the challenges regarding incorrect coordinates and taxonomical inaccuracies in freshwater species occurrence data pose another major hurdle that may hinder freshwater conservation efforts in the hotspot. Hence, for any biogeographic analysis, species distribution modelling or conservation initiative, it is crucial to use datasets that are, to the largest possible extent, free of spatial and taxonomic errors. …”
