TBX 5 gene mutation analysis among Tanzanian children with congenital heart diseases using high-resolution melting assays Open
Early cardiac development is governed by transcription factor genes. TBX5, a T-box transcription factor gene, plays an important role in the development of the second heart field during cardiac septation by promoting cell cycle progression…

Hippopotamus movements structure the spatiotemporal dynamics of an active anthrax outbreak Open
Globally, anthrax outbreaks pose a serious threat to people, livestock, and wildlife. Furthermore, environmental change can exacerbate these outbreak dynamics by altering the host–pathogen relationship. However, little is known about how t…

Spatial ecology of male hippopotamus in a changing watershed Open
The obligate dependency of the common hippopotamus, Hippopotamus amphibius , on water makes them particularly vulnerable to hydrological disturbances. Despite the threats facing this at-risk species, there is a lack of information regardin…

Comparative effects of low energy diets on blood parameters and liver HSP70 and iNOS gene expressions among Tanzanian local chicken ecotypes Open
A study comparing effects of low energy diets on liver HSP70 and iNOS gene expressions and blood indices of three Tanzanian chicken ecotypes was conducted. Four weeks old hens belonging to Kuchi (KU), Ching’wekwe (CH) and Morogoro medium (…

Effects of the hippopotamus on the chemistry and ecology of a changing watershed Open
Significance Hippopotami exert a strong influence on the biogeochemistry and ecology of freshwater ecosystems by excreting terrestrially derived organic matter into these systems. These impacts are likely to be strongly controlled by hydro…
