SOLANUM ELAEAGNIFOLIUM (SOLANACEAE) INVADING ONE IN FIVE NATURA 2000 PROTECTED AREAS OF GREECE AND ONE IN FOUR HABITAT TYPES: WHAT IS NEXT?

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

Anti-Viral Pattern Recognition Receptors as Therapeutic Targets

Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) play a central role in the inflammation that ensues following microbial infection by their recognition of molecular patterns present in invading microorganisms but also following tissue damage by recognising molecules released during disease states.Such receptors are expressed in a variety of cells and in variou

Intra-Cavity Chromatic Dispersion Impacts on 10-Gb/s Optical OFDM Transmissions Over 25-km Dual-RSOA-Based Self-Seeded PON Systems

Owing to the lack of strong physical mechanisms capable of elaborately balancing a large number of longitudinal modes created pet calming peanut butter in a self-seeded passive optical network (PON), the resulting coherent-like optical signals are vulnerable to frequency-dependent optical phenomena such as chromatic dispersion (CD).In this paper, b
