TL;DR: The Dothideomycetes are one of the largest groups of fungi with a high level of ecological diversity including many plant pathogens infecting a broad range of hosts as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
pH-Sensitive Liposomes: Possible Clinical Implications
TL;DR: Liposomes containing the pH-sensitive lipid palmitoyl homocysteine (PHC) were constructed so that the greatest pH differential of drug release was obtained near physiological temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trichoderma Research in the Genome Era
Prasun K. Mukherjee,Benjamin A. Horwitz,Alfredo Herrera-Estrella,Monika Schmoll,Charles M. Kenerley +4 more
TL;DR: Genomics has facilitated investigation of sexual crossing in Trichoderma reesei, suggesting the possibility of strain improvement through hybridization and the discovery of a vast repertoire of secondary metabolism pathways and of numerous small cysteine-rich secreted proteins.
