STRATEGIES FOR IMPROVING THE PERFORMANCE OF HIGHER LEARNING INSTITUTIONS IN TANZANIA




Adenoviruses using the cancer marker EphA2 as a receptor in vitro and in vivo by genetic ligand insertion into different capsid scaffolds.

Adenoviral gene therapy and oncolysis would critically benefit from targeted cell entry by genetically modified capsids.This requires both the ablation of native adenovirus tropism and the identification of ligands that remain functional in virus context.Here, we establish cell type-specific entry of HAdV-5-based vectors by genetic ligand insertion

Solanum elaeagnifolium (Solanaceae) Invading One in Five Natura 2000 Protected Areas of Greece and One in Four Habitat Types: What Is Next?

Invasive alien plants have severe impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services worldwide.To assess the invasion of Solanum elaeagnifolium Cav.(a major alien invasive plant; Solanaceae) in Greek protected areas (PAs), we conducted an extensive drive-by survey across the country crossing half of the Greek Natura 2000 sites.The occurrence data were
