A geometrical model for testing bilateral symmetry of bamboo leaf with a simplified Gielis equation [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2016 The size and shape of plant leaves change with growth, and an accurate description of leaf shape is crucial for describing plant morphogenesis and development.

Bilateral symmetry of linear streptomycete chromosomes. [PDF]
Microb Genom, 2021 Abstract Here we characterise an uncommon set of telomeres from Streptomyces rimosus ATCC 10970, the parental strain of a lineage of one of the earliest-discovered antibiotic-producers.

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 ...

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 ...

Stimulus information supporting bilateral symmetry perception [PDF]
Vision Research, 2019 A classification image (a psychophysical reverse-correlation) method was used to investigate what stimulus regions and information the visual system uses for bilateral symmetry perception. The stimuli were symmetric random-dot patterns with either low or high dot density.

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 ...

The manoeuvrability hypothesis to explain the maintenance of bilateral symmetry in animal evolution [PDF]
Biology Direct, 2012 Background The overwhelming majority of animal species exhibit bilateral symmetry. However, the precise evolutionary importance of bilateral symmetry is unknown, although elements of the understanding of the phenomenon have been present within the ...
