Attenuated vasodilator effectiveness of protease-activated receptor 2 agonist in heterozygous par2 knockout mice.
Studies of homozygous PAR2 gene knockout mice have described a mix of phenotypic effects in vitro and in vivo.However, there have been few studies of PAR2 heterozygous (wild-type/knockout; PAR2-HET) mice.The phenotypes of many hemi and heterozygous transgenic mice have been described as intermediates between those of wild-type and knockout animals.
Grass-Shrub Associations over a Precipitation Gradient and Their Implications for Restoration in the Great Basin, USA.
As environmental stress increases positive (facilitative) plant interactions often predominate.Plant-plant associations (or lack thereof) can indicate whether certain plant species favor particular types of microsites (e.g., shrub canopies or plant-free interspaces) and can provide valuable insights into whether "nurse plants" will contribute to se
