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 ...

Limited effects of structural restoration on ecosystem functioning in an urban tropical stream

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Hydromorphological restoration through structural interventions is commonly used to mitigate urbanization impacts on lotic freshwater systems, but their effects on ecosystem functioning in urban tropical streams remain unexplored.

Investigating Variation among Arikara Crania Using Geometric Morphometry

, 2000
Geometric morphometry has seen minimal application in studies of biological variability among subpopulations of humans. However, as landmark coordinates are highly effective for capturing information regarding size and shape variation, the tools of ...

Physiological cerebrospinal fluid interactions between brain and eye structures are altered after long‐duration spaceflight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight represents an extreme challenge, triggering adaptive responses including spaceflight‐associated neuro‐ocular syndrome, characterized by diminished visual acuity and ocular changes, which is a significant health risk for Mars missions.

Utility of local capillary supply indices: Insights from computational image‐based modelling

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Local capillary distribution and fibre geometry influence oxygen availability in skeletal muscle. Image‐based modelling of tissue PO2${{P}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_2}}}$ shows that area‐based measures of capillary supply – the local capillary density (LCDi) and local maximum diffusion distance (Dmax,i) – most accurately represent the ...

How much is there really? Why stereology is essential in lung morphometry

, 2006
Quantitative data on lung structure are essential to set up structure-function models for assessing the functional performance of the lung or to make statistically valid comparisons in experimental morphology, physiology, or pathology.

Shape and Size Variations of Distal Phalanges in Cattle

Animals
Studies on the structure of the distal phalanx help explain the development of laminitis. Additionally, examining the structure of the distal phalanx from a taxonomic perspective also contributes to veterinary anatomy.

Geometrical Models for 2D Morphometry in Bioimages

From understanding how cell shape can be a biomarker in cancer diagnosis and prognosis to how change in cell shape dictates embryogenesis, morphology quantification is crucial in different areas of biology. Morphology-related measurements are extracted from segmented objects in bioimages, and their quality is therefore directly depend on the number of ...

A microstructurally motivated framework to study autoregulation in the coronary circulation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A microstructurally motivated framework was constructed to simulate coronary autoregulation in symmetrically bifurcating trees at three myocardial depths: subepicardial (subepi), midwall and subendocardial (subendo). Wall mechanics of individual vessels are governed by a constrained‐mixture model, incorporating elastin, collagen ...
