MUCOSAL TRANSMISSIBILITY, DISEASE INDUCTION AND CORECEPTOR SWITCHING OF R5 SHIVSF162P3N MOLECULAR CLONES IN RHESUS MACAQUES

Mucosal transmissibility, disease induction and coreceptor switching of R5 SHIVSF162P3N molecular clones in rhesus macaques

Abstract Background Mucosally transmissible and pathogenic CCR5 (R5)-tropic simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV) molecular clones are useful reagents to identity neutralization escape in HIV-1 vaccine experiments and bucket to study the envelope evolutionary process and mechanistic basis for coreceptor switch during the course of natural infe

Placement of Triblidiaceae in Rhytismatales and comments on unique ascospore morphologies in Leotiomycetes (Fungi, Ascomycota)

Triblidiaceae is a family of uncommonly encountered, non-lichenized discomycetes.A recent classification circumscribed the family to include Triblidium (4 spp.and 1 subsp.), Huangshania (2 spp.) and Pseudographis (2 spp.and 1 var.).The apothecia of these fungi are persistent and drought-tolerant; they possess stromatic, highly melanized covering la

Efficacy of invasive alien plants in controlling Arionidae slugs

Aim of study: To develop an alternative slug control method, we explored the use of plant material from seven invasive plant species against Arion slugs.Area of study: The experiments were performed at the University of Ljubljana (Slovenia).Material and methods: In laboratory (exp.A-C) and semi-field studies (exp.D), we investigated the contact and
