The nucleotide imbalance, the nucleotide pair imbalance and the nucleotide path of mitochondrial Nucleotide Genomic Signals (mtNuGSs) for several taxa have been analyzed comparatively. Evolutionary changes of conservative segments, as well as individual mutations of hyper-variable segments have been identified. An innovative technique, based on reference-offset representation of sets of related signals has been used throughout the study.


This article summarizes the studies published in the field of hadith and hadith studies, and gives a brief overview and analyzes the hadith approaches. The paper analyzes evolutionary changes of contradictory views on the development of hadith science in the West, a collection of six reliable sahih hadiths and foreign scholars attitude towards them, as well as the historical significance of hadiths and their importance in the Islamic world. It is known that some hadiths were fabricated for various purposes. We are far from thinking that all hadiths are authentic and correct. However, because of some "fake" hadiths, we oppose the rejection of Islamic sources after Qur'an. Therefore, the essence and contents of many works published in the West must be reanalyzed today. As a practical implementation of the above-mentioned issues, most of the foreign researches on hadith have been studied with using comparative-historical, logical, and descriptive methods in this article. As a novelty of this work, it is possible to present the analysis of new books, articles published abroad. The results show that many western scholars changed their negative views about hadiths to positive side and they are also researching the historical significance of hadiths. In fact, they are studying “al-Kutub al-Sitta” as the main source after Qur'an. According to our conclusions, many studies on the hadiths in the West have been conducted, but there is no mutual comparative analysis on this field. The role and significance of Central Asian scientists have not been studied adequately in the formation of positive opinions on hadith in the West

This article is dedicated to portrait images in Western European porcelain of the XVIII century. Research is conducted on the works created in various European countries, such as Germany (Meissen), France (Sevres), Austria (Vienna), and England (Wedgwood Pottery Manufactory). Prominent masters of porcelain –Kendler, Boizot, Grassi – are the authors of the portraits. Sculptural portrait images of August III – painter of the court of the French Queen Marie Antoinette and the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II are notable for exquisite artistic merit. The article reviews porcelain sculpture, as well as oil painted portraits. Interpretation of the images manifests the features of three styles characteristic to art of the XVIII century: Baroque, Rococo and Classicism. Portrait images reflect the themes typical to the Age of Enlightenment. The article describes the peculiarities of the creations of artists who worked in various European porcelain manufactories. Research methodology is based on the detailed stylistic analysis of the works of Baroque, Rococo and Classicism; fundamental examination of the works in historical sequence for determining the evolutionary changes; comparative analysis for revealing national and authorial specificities. The novelty is defined by the fact that this article is first to comprehensively analyze the portrait images in porcelain of such countries as Germany, France, and Austria of the XVIII century, as well as in identification of the features characteristic to different artists.

This paper brings a comparative analysis of three types of ode poems, i.e., the Pindaric, Horatian and Irregular odes. Its major focus is on the evolutionary changes of odes from its inception at Grecian to English Romantic odes which were greatly influenced by many like Roman influence, Italian influence, Renaissance and Romantic period etc. Moreover the paper gives a clear picture of ode poetry, its characteristics, form and structure and the functions of each type. Through a comparative study the distinct characteristics of the three types are explicated. Some of the ode poems of English poetry such as “The progress of Poesy: A Pindaric ode” by Thomas Grey, “Ode on Solitude” by Alexander Pope and “Ode on a Grecian Urn” by John Keats have been taken as the English models of the three kinds respectively. These poems where compared with the original classical models and critically analyzed.
