Independent origin of large labyrinth size in turtles

Nature Communications, 2022
The size and shape of the inner ear, or bony labyrinth, is thought to be related to ecological adaptations in vertebrates. Here, the authors examine this relationship in turtles across 230 million years of evolution, unexpectedly finding large labyrinth ...

IE-Map: a novel in-vivo atlas and template of the human inner ear

Scientific Reports, 2021
Brain atlases and templates are core tools in scientific research with increasing importance also in clinical applications. Advances in neuroimaging now allowed us to expand the atlas domain to the vestibular and auditory organ, the inner ear.

Intraspecific Shape Variation in the Bony Labyrinth [PDF]

, 2021
Intraspecific shape variation of the Homo sapiens bony labyrinth, or inner ear, has been previously explored in relation to its association with body size, sexual dimorphism, and genetic between-group differences.

Analysis of Vestibular Labyrinthine Geometry and Variation in the Human Temporal Bone

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Stable posture and body movement in humans is dictated by the precise functioning of the ampulla organs in the semi-circular canals. Statistical analysis of the interrelationship between bony and membranous compartments within the semi-circular canals is

Bony labyrinth taxonomic identification and long-term evolution of livestock in the Southwest and Central AsiaBony labyrinth taxonomic identification and long-term evolution of livestock in the Southwest and Central Asia [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Southwest and Central Asia were pivotal regions for the domestication and dispersal of domestic herbivores. Here we investigate long-term variation in bony labyrinth morphology of domestic bovids (sheep, goats and cattle) across the last 10 000 years. We
