DOES OVER-DOMINANCE OF BAMBUSA BAMBOS (L.) VOSS. ALTER ABUNDANCE AND RICHNESS OF ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL FUNGAL COMMUNITY IN FORESTS?

Does over-dominance of Bambusa bambos (L.) Voss. alter abundance and richness of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal fungal community in forests?

Some areas under the Tropical Moist Evergreen Forests (TMEF), the major forest type in the Intermediate gildan antique orange Zone of Sri Lanka, are heavily dominated by a native bamboo species, Bambusa bambos (L.) Voss.altering the hierarchical status and structure.The study evaluated whether the over-abundance of B.bambos has modified the arbuscu

Synthesis and characterization of actively HER-2 Targeted Fe3O4@Au nanoparticles for molecular radiosensitization of breast cancer

Introduction: The present study was done to assess the effect of molecularly-targeted core/shell of iron oxide/gold nanoparticles (Fe3O4@AuNPs) on tumor radiosensitization of SKBr-3 breast cancer cells.Methods: Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2)-targeted Fe3O4@AuNPs were synthesized by conjugating trastuzumab (TZ, Herceptin) to PEGyla
