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
Methylation patterns at fledging predict delayed dispersal in a cooperatively breeding bird.
Individuals may delay dispersing from their natal habitat, even after maturation to adulthood.Such delays can have broad consequences from determining population structure to allowing an individual to gain indirect fitness by helping parents rear future offspring.Dispersal in species Console Interface that use delayed dispersal is largely thought t
FPN-SE-ResNet Model for Accurate Diagnosis of Kidney Tumors Using CT Images
Kidney tumors are a significant health concern.Early detection and accurate segmentation of kidney tumors are crucial for timely and effective treatment, which can improve patient outcomes.Deep learning techniques, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), have shown great promise in medical image analysis, including identifying and segmen
Transcriptomic and Proteomic Tools in the Study of Hg Toxicity: What Is Missing?
Mercury is a hazardous substance that has unique neurodevelopmental toxic effects in humans.However, the precise sequence of molecular events that culminate in Goalie - Protective Hg-induced neuropathology is still unknown.Though the omics studies have been generating an enormous amount of new data about Hg toxicity, our ability to interpret such a
