NFYB Integrates Hormonal Signals into Tissue Allometry by Promoting Protein Biosynthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In the American cockroach, NFYB acts as a spatiotemporin that translates distinct hormonal cues into tissue‐specific allometry. Juvenile hormone activates NFYB in the early fat body, while 20‐hydroxyecdysone induces it in late wing pads. NFYB then promotes protein biosynthesis via core translational machinery, driving differential growth across the ...

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Biomass estimation as a function of vertical forest structure and forest height: potential and limitations for radar remote sensing [PDF]

, 2010
One common method to estimate biomass is measuring forest height and applying allometric equations to get forest biomass. Conditions like changing forest density or changing forest structure bias the allometric relations or biomass estimation fails ...

POTENSI SIMPANAN KARBON DI ATAS PERMUKAAN TANAH TEGAKAN Acacia nilotica L. (Willd) ex. Del. DI TAMAN NASIONAL BALURAN, JAWA TIMUR

Journal of Natural Resources and Environmental Management, 2017
Acacia nilotica is an invasive species which is difficult to eradicate up to present.  A. nilotica is a fast growing species of savanna tree, and therefore is supposed probably to have relatively high biomass and carbon content.

The morphology of the oval window in Paranthropus robustus compared to humans and other modern primates

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

BIVARIATE AND MULTIVARIATE SIZE ALLOMETRY OF THE NILE FISH, (Chrysichthys auratus (Ceoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1809) FROM THE NILE AT EGYPT [PDF]

Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 1991
The bivariate size allometry of Chrysichthys auratus was estimated by the application of the power function equation of HUXLEY (1932) on certain - morphometric characters in terms of its parameters.
