Dimer Models from Mirror Symmetry and Quivering Amoebae [PDF]

, 2005
Dimer models are 2-dimensional combinatorial systems that have been shown to encode the gauge groups, matter content and tree-level superpotential of the world-volume quiver gauge theories obtained by placing D3-branes at the tip of a singular toric ...

The Pathology of the Brain Eating Amoeba Naegleria fowleri

Indian Journal of Microbiology
The genus Naegleria is a taxonomic subfamily consisting of 47 free-living amoebae. The genus can be found in warm aqueous or soil habitats worldwide. The species Naegleria fowleri is probably the best-known species of this genus.

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 1877-1949, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

Primary Amoebic (Naegleria fowleri) Meningoencephalitis Presenting as Status Epilepticus [PDF]

, 2011
Primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM) is a rare entity. Usual presenting features are fever, headache and seizures with meningeal signs and this disease carries high mortality rate.

Quivers, YBE and 3-manifolds

, 2012
We study 4d superconformal indices for a large class of N=1 superconformal quiver gauge theories realized combinatorially as a bipartite graph or a set of "zig-zag paths" on a two-dimensional torus T^2.

Diverse Legionella‐Like Bacteria Associated with Testate Amoebae of the Genus Arcella (Arcellinida: Amoebozoa)

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 2018
AbstractDiverse species of Legionella and Legionella‐like amoebal pathogens (LLAPs) have been identified as intracellular bacteria in many amoeboid protists. There are, however, other amoeboid groups such as testate amoeba for which we know little about their potential to host such bacteria.

First Evidence for Diploidy and Genetic Recombination in Free-Living Amoebae of the Genus Naegleria on the Basis of Electrophoretic Variation [PDF]

Genetics, 1987
ABSTRACT Electrophoretic variation for 15 enzyme-coding genes was studied in various Naegleria (Rhizopoda, Vahlkampfiidae) species. The occurrence of complex banding patterns provided the first evidence of a diploid structure of the genome of these amoebae.

Toxic effects of selected proprietary dry eye drops on Acanthamoeba

Scientific Reports, 2018
Amoebae of the genus Acanthamoeba are ubiquitous protists that have been isolated from many sources such as soils, water and the air. They are responsible for infections including fatal encephalitis and a severe keratitis in humans.

Factors determining chromosomal localization of transposable elements in plants

Plant Biology, Volume 27, Issue 6, Page 975-989, October 2025.
We review transposon chromosomal niches, and the functional consequences of their specific chromosomal localization in plants. Abstract Transposable elements (TEs) constitute a significant part of plant genomes and shape their genomic landscape. While some TEs are ubiquitously dispersed, other elements specifically occupy discrete genomic loci.

Histopathological study of invasive and non-invasive Entamoeba spp. in experimental rats

Bulletin of the National Research Centre, 2019
Background The genus Entamoeba has many species that are invasive or non-invasive (E. histolytica, E. dispar, and E. moshkovskii).The invasive E. histolytica is the main pathogenic amoeba in human.
