Morphological characterization of ticks of the genus Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) based on geometric morphometry: the case of the Savannah District in Côte d’Ivoire

open access: yesJournal of Entomological and Acarological Research, 2023
The introduction of the invasive tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus in Côte d'Ivoire has led to a change in the population of ticks of the genus Rhipicephalus (Boophilus).

Issues with threshold masking in Voxel-based morphometry of atrophied brains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
There is great interest in using automatic computational neuroanatomy tools to study ageing and neurodegenerative disease. Voxel-Based Morphometry (VBM) is one of the most widely used of such techniques.

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

open access: yesMed Vet Entomol
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 ...

Geometric morphometrics of rodent sperm head shape. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Mammalian spermatozoa, particularly those of rodent species, are extremely complex cells and differ greatly in form and dimensions. Thus, characterization of sperm size and, particularly, sperm shape represents a major challenge. No consensus exists on a

Bill Shape Variation in African Penguin (Spheniscus demersus) Held Captive in Two Zoos

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Penguins, like most birds, are considered monomorphic species. Cloacal endoscopy, laparoscopy, or molecular sex verification are used to determine sex in such animals.

Cortical neuronal loss and hippocampal sclerosis are not detected by voxel-based morphometry in individual epilepsy surgery patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) has detected differences between brains of groups of patients with epilepsy and controls, but the sensitivity for detecting subtle pathological changes in single subjects has not been established.

Evidence for morphological and genetic structuring of Plebeia flavocincta (Apidae: Meliponini) populations in Northeast Brazil

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Tropical dry forests are increasingly threatened by human activities. In Northeast Brazil, the Caatinga, an area of tropical dry forests surrounded by wetlands, is considered globally unique among these habitats. In this region, the stingless bee Plebeia

Variations in Otolith and Scale Shape of the Invasive Round Goby Neogobius melanostomus Populations from Different Habitats of the Sava River Basin, Croatia

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Fisheries, 2023
Round goby Neogobius melanostomus is one of the three invasive Ponto-Caspian gobies found in the Sava River basin in Croatia. It has a negative effect on the native ecosystems due to its high invasive potential that enables its rapid spread upstream in ...
