MAPPING HABITAT SUITABILITY FOR ASIATIC BLACK BEAR AND RED PANDA IN MAKALU BARUN NATIONAL PARK OF NEPAL FROM MAXENT AND GARP MODELS

Mapping habitat suitability for Asiatic black bear and red panda in Makalu Barun National Park of Nepal from Maxent and GARP models

Abstract Habitat evaluation is essential for managing wildlife populations and formulating conservation policies.With the rise of innovative powerful statistical techniques in partnership with Remote Sensing, GIS and GPS techniques, spatially explicit species distribution modeling (SDM) has rapidly grown in conservation biology.These models can hel

Dense granule protein 3 of Toxoplasma gondii plays a crucial role in the capability of the tissue cysts of the parasite to persist in the presence of anti-cyst CD8+ T cells during the chronic stage of infection

Toxoplasma gondii establishes chronic infection by forming tissue cysts, and this chronic infection is one of the most common parasitic infections in humans.Our recent studies revealed that whereas CD8+ T cells of genetically resistant BALB/c mice have the capability to remove the tissue cysts of the parasite through their perforin-mediated activit
