Malformed trilobites from the Cambrian, Ordovician, and Silurian of Australia [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Biomineralised remains of trilobites provide important insight into the evolutionary history of a diverse, extinct group of arthropods. Their exoskeletons are also ideal for recording malformations, including evidence of post-injury repair.

Malformed vertebrae: a clinical and imaging review
Insights into Imaging, 2018 A variety of structural developmental anomalies affect the vertebral column. Malformed vertebrae can arise secondary to errors of vertebral formation, fusion and/or segmentation and developmental variation.

Malformed trilobites from the Ordovician and Devonian
, 2021 Trilobite malformations are often ascribed to failed predation and represent key evidence for Paleozoic arthropod predator–prey systems. A large number of malformed trilobites are known to Cambrian-aged deposits and have recently been discussed at length.

Malformations in Late Devonian brachiopods from the western Junggar, NW China and their potential causes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Although malformations are found in both extant organisms and the fossil record, they are more rarely reported in the fossil record than in living organisms, and the environmental factors causing the malformations are much more difficult to identify for ...

A new bilaterally injured trilobite presents insight into attack patterns of Cambrian predators [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Durophagous predation in the Cambrian is typically recorded as malformed shells and trilobites, with rarer evidence in the form of coprolites and shelly gut contents.

INDUCTION OF RESIISTANCE IN TOMATO PLANTS AGAINST ROOT-KNOT NEMATODE BY SOME CHEMICAL AND PLANTS EXTRACTS(a) [PDF]
Arab Universities Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2007 Different agents were tested as inducing re-sistance factors in tomato plants against root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. These agents include ethyl salicylic acid, (0.125 ml/l) jassmonic acid (0.125 ml/L) sincocin solution, (0.1%) agrispon ...

The Usefulness of Reconstructed 3D Images in Surgical Planning for Cochlear Implantation in a Malformed Ear with an Abnormal Course of the Facial Nerve [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2012 ObjectivesIt is not unusual for a cochlear implantation (CI) candidate to have some type of ear malformation, in particular an abnormal course of the facial nerve (FN). In this study, we attempted to reconstruct a three-dimensional (3D) image of temporal
