Abnormal motoneuron migration, differentiation, and axon outgrowth in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
The role of heterotopic (migratory) motoneurons (HMN) in the pathogenesis of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is still controversial. We examined the occurrence and amount of HMN in spinal cord tissue from eight children with SMA (six with SMA-I and two ...

Fungal colonization of the roots of selected halophytes from Sečovlje salterns
To reveal their mycotrophic status, we have here analysed the fungal colonisation of the roots, and the identity of these fungi, of the most abundant halophytic plant species from Sečovlje salterns (Slovenia): Aster tripolium, Limonium angustifolium and

A hydro-acoustics approach of accessing macrophyte biomass data
Hydro-acoustic methods are commonly used to estimate the abundance and distribution pattern of fish in aquatic environments, while studies on the assessment of the biomass of submerged macrophytes in the littoral zones are still rare. In the present study
