Generative network modeling reveals quantitative definitions of bilateral symmetry exhibited by a whole insect brain connectome [PDF]
eLife, 2023 Comparing connectomes can help explain how neural connectivity is related to genetics, disease, development, learning, and behavior. However, making statistical inferences about the significance and nature of differences between two networks is an open ...

Bilateral symmetry of linear streptomycete chromosomes. [PDF]
Microb Genom, 2021 AbstractHere we characterise an uncommon set of telomeres fromStreptomyces rimosusATCC 10970, the parental strain of a lineage of one of the earliest-discovered antibiotic-producers. Following the closure of its genome sequence, we then compared unusual telomeres from this organism with the other five classes of replicon ends found amongst ...

Evaluation of roots, root canal morphology, and bilateral symmetry of maxillary first molars in a Syrian subpopulation using cone beam computed tomography [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, 2023 Objective Successful endodontic treatments require a comprehensive knowledge of the root canal anatomy, so this study aimed to investigate the number of roots, configurations of root canals, and their bilateral symmetry of maxillary first molars in the ...

Beyond bilateral symmetry: geometric morphometric methods for any type of symmetry [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011 Background Studies of symmetric structures have made important contributions to evolutionary biology, for example, by using fluctuating asymmetry as a measure of developmental instability or for investigating the mechanisms of morphological integration ...
