Its easy to understand the frustration: Smythes company, Intrawest, owns the Whistler Blackcomb resort, which will be a key host venue for the Winter Games in 2010 in Vancouver, Canada.
In this study, we quantify and map the population density and carbon contents of five key host species for P. ramorum in California and Oregon, including four hosts killed by the pathogen (Notholithocarpus densiflorus, Quercus agrifolia, Quercus kelloggii and Quercus chrysolepis) and the foliar host Umbellularia californica which supports high sporulation rates.
It is a key host ligand for bacterial adhesion.
Even with an abundant vector population, the absence of key vertebrate hosts for all or part of the year is significant.
A better understanding of molecular PPV-plant interactions would help identify key host factors required for PPV infection and assist in the development of novel recessive resistance to PPV [ 6].
An inter-protomer pocket within the hexamer configuration of the CA, which is a binding site for key host dependency factors, is an especially appealing region for small molecule targeting.
Google will host its own key server, for example.
As a key host molecule triggered by and required for the control of parasitic worms [ 10], IL4 may constitute a battleground upon which helminths are locked in evolutionary conflict with their mammalian hosts.
On the basis of relevance to reemerging viruses, such as Nipah virus and influenza A virus, pigs are a key risk host for emerging RNA virus associated disease in humans in different areas (1 – 3 ).
Although the importance of the gut microbiome for host health is now widely recognized [ 20– 22], it is not yet known which of the many hundreds of species are key for host health, and little is understood about the molecular host microbiome interactions that influence host metabolic pathways.
