Herbarium‐based measurements are reliable predictors of fresh plant traits in Neotropical Myrtaceae

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Herbarium specimens are increasingly used to extract morphological traits for ecological and evolutionary studies, yet the effects of tissue desiccation on trait measurements remain poorly understood. Here, we tested two hypotheses: (H1) whether higher tissue water content leads to greater measurement changes after herborization and ...

MINIMIZING INFLUENCE OF BEHAVIORAL TRAITS IN INVESTMENT DECISIONS: ROLE OF RATIONAL INTELLIGENCE IN INVESTMENT DECISIONS

Abstract Behavioral bias is a psychological reflection that reflect in decision making of an individual and investment decisions are sensitive as it may affect the risk and return of it. The behavioral bias may be reflected in two ways, positive and negative. In positive, the over confidence, quick response, speculation or gambling approach.

Multi‐method analysis for the three‐dimensional reconstruction of muscle fascicles from DiceCT datasets

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

Personality Traits as Moderator of Risk Perception and Investment Decision

International Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Scope
The present study uses a quantitative research approach to explore the impact of behavioural biases and personality on investment decisions and risk perception. It analyses how biases such as Anchoring, Disposition, Representativeness, and herding influence people's risk perception and investment behaviour. The research also investigates the moderating

Cortical bone distribution in the human mandibular symphysis: Ontogenic and morphometric approaches in archeological context

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The human mandibular symphysis concentrates multiaxial loads during function and remodels throughout growth, but the precise mechanisms underlying cortical bone shape during growth remain relatively unexplored. Approaches based solely on thickness or external cortical contours provide only partial insights and do not capture the functional ...

Male reproductive system in stenopodidean shrimps: Unveiling basal reproductive traits in shrimp‐like Pleocyemata (Stenopodidae and Spongicolidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Stenopodidea represents one of the basal lineages within Pleocyemata, yet the male reproductive system (MRS) of this group remains poorly understood, with limited information available regarding its morphology and function. This study provides the first detailed description of the MRS in four stenopodidean shrimp species from two families ...

Balancing mechanics and metabolism: Elevational variation in the microanatomy of hummingbird flight muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Factors varying along elevational gradients impose strong aerodynamic and physiological constraints on powered flight, yet the internal microanatomical variation associated with elevational context in animals under such conditions remains poorly understood.

Loss of Paired Weapons Leads to Larger Testes and a Lighter Load for Dispersal

Ecology and Evolution
Reproduction is often costly for males, as it may require the growth of structural traits that aid in dispersal to find females, competition over mating opportunities, and ejaculate production.

Effects of female-specific selection for reproductive investment on male fertility traits

Journal of Evolutionary Biology
Abstract Despite sharing an autosomal genome, the often divergent reproductive strategies of males and females cause the selection to act in a sex-specific manner. Selection acting on one sex can have negative, positive, or neutral fitness consequences on the opposite sex.
