Agro-morphological and molecular characterization of Argentine maize (Zea mays L.) landraces of ‘Cristalino Colorado’ race

Genetic Resources
Despite the high variability of Argentine maize (Zea mays L.) landraces, they are scarcely used by breeders due to the limited knowledge available about the genetic merit of these materials.

Phenotypic integration and the organization of discrete facial variation

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Integration patterns shape the prevalence of discrete facial trait combinations. Abstract Facial morphology results from coordinated developmental and evolutionary processes that produce structured patterns of covariation among traits. Therefore, individual faces reflect integrated anatomical configurations rather than collections of isolated traits ...

Growing together: Developmental integration and modularity in the human talus–calcaneus complex

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates morphological integration and trabecular bone development in the human talus–calcaneus complex during postnatal ontogeny. The two bones exhibit strong integration throughout development, with differing bone volume fraction trajectories presumably reflecting their distinct functional roles during bipedal gait acquisition ...

Annual Variability of Wing Morphology in Culex sitiens Wiedemann (Diptera, Culicidae) Mosquito Vectors from the Coastal Area of Samut Songkhram Province, Thailand

Journal of Parasitology Research, 2019
Culex sitiens Wiedemann (Diptera, Culicidae) is a mosquito vector that is found in coastal areas. Effective control of mosquitoes requires knowledge of the biology, ecology, and behavior of the vector as well as of various other aspects, including its ...

DNA barcoding and geometric morphometry of tabanid flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) in Thailand and a new record of a Thai horse fly

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Tabanus tenens identified in this study is a newly recorded species in Thailand. DNA barcoding using the cox1 gene identified tabanid species in the present study. WGM data from different sites served as a reference for species identification. Abstract Tabanid flies are gaining high medical and veterinary importance due to their role as a vector of ...

Ontogenetic changes and sexual dimorphism in the cranium and mandible of the Atlantic walrus (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus L.)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 7, Page 1875-1903, July 2026.
Abstract Walruses have been an important subsistence and cultural resource for humans and have been exploited for millennia across their distribution. This exploitation has contributed to severe declines in several populations and local extirpations.

Surface‐guided analysis of breast shape changes during postoperative radiotherapy by using a functional map framework

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract BackgroundWhile positioning errors during radiotherapy are increasingly well‐characterized and accounted for in the Planning Target Volume (PTV), little is known about the shape and volume changes of the breast in the course of radiotherapy. Yet they represent an unknown factor that may impact treatment effectiveness, highlighting the need to ...
