Recently, some travertine landscape groups in Huanglong Scenic Spot have been degraded to varying degrees.Surface water leakage, blackening and desertification have occurred on a large scale in the dense distribution area of Salix cupularis shrub, which has adversely affected the core value of the Huanglong World Natural Heritage Site.The relations
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is an important and common cause of mortality and morbidity in immunocompromised patients such as those with HIV/AIDS, transplant recipients on immunosuppressive therapy, and malignant hematological disease.After primary infection with CMV the virus becomes latent in multiple organs and can later be reactivated during severe d
Precipitation is a critical variable to monitor and predict meteorological drought.The WMO recommended standardized precipitation index (SPI) is calculated from gauge (i.e.GPCC), satellite-gauge (GPCP, CHIRPS), reanalysis (i.e.ERA-Interim, and MERRA-2), and satellite-gauge-reanalysis (i.e.MSWEP) over the global domain.Measured differences among the
Injury to retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons triggers rapid activation of Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling, a major prodeath pathway in injured RGCs.Of the multiple kinases that can activate JNK, dual leucine kinase (Dlk) is known to regulate both apoptosis and Wallerian degeneration triggered by axonal insult.Here we tested the importance of D
