Using geometric morphometrics and standard morphometry to discriminate three honeybee subspecies [PDF]

Apidologie, 2008
Honeybee (Apis mellifera) subspecies usually are distinguished by standard morphometry methods, based mainly on multivariate analysis of distances and angles. Recently another method of statistical analysis of shape, geometric morphometrics, has been developed. The new method is based on characteristic points described by Cartesian coordinates. The two

In Vivo Effect of a Synthetic Amniotic Fluid on Fetal Lung and Gastrointestinal Tract: A Pre‐Clinical Rodent Model

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Amnioinfusions in anhydramnios aim to promote fetal lung development, but currently used fluids (Normal Saline [NS], Lactated Ringer's [LR]) fail to mimic the intrauterine environment and increase reactive oxygen species (ROS). We developed a synthetic amniotic fluid (Amnio‐well, AW) designed to reduce intrauterine ROS.

Morphological and Genetic Variability in Radix auricularia (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Lymnaeidae) of Lake Baikal, Siberia: The Story of an Unfinished Invasion into the Ancient Deepest Lake

Diversity, 2022
This article aims to reconstruct the invasion of the ear-shaped pond snail, Radix auricularia (Linnaeus, 1758), to Lake Baikal, East Siberia. This species is widely distributed in the Palaearctic and Northern America, and since the early 20th century has

Spatial Structuring ofTriatoma infestans(Hemiptera, Reduviidae) Populations from Northwestern Argentina Using Wing Geometric Morphometry [PDF]

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2004
Wing geometric morphometry was used to study the spatial structuring of populations of Triatoma infestans from different villages, ecotopes, and sites within a village in northwestern Argentina. A total of 308 male and 197 female wings of T. infestans collected from peridomestic and domestic ecotopes in March 2000 was analyzed.

Traditional and Geometric Morphometrics and Invariant Shape Descriptors of Catfish Otoliths in the Yucatán Peninsula: Tools for Species Identification and Individual Size Estimation at Maya Archaeological Sites

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the use of otolith shape analysis for species identification and size estimation in Ariopsis felis and Bagre marinus, based on 181 modern otoliths obtained from a scientific collection and recent sampling in the coastal regions of Campeche and Yucatán, as well as 39 archaeological otoliths corresponding to the Early ...

Studying the Relationship Between Morphological Characteristics and Ecological Niche Overlap of the Namak Chub (Squalius namak) In the Jajroud River [PDF]

محیط زیست و توسعه فرابخشی
Introduction: The degree of overlap in ecological niches can indicate the extent of resource sharing and potential interspecific competition. The intensity or effects of resource sharing and competition may also be partially related to species abundance,
