Functional morphology of trabecular bone in the calcaneus of African apes

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Pan exhibits significantly higher calcaneal tuberosity trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) and bone volume fraction (BV/TV) than Gorilla, potentially reflecting higher triceps surae forces for vertical climbing. Both taxa have significantly higher Tb.Th and BV/TV in the anterior calcaneus; the difference is exaggerated in Gorilla, potentially reflecting ...

Scaling relationships between Haversian canal‐to‐secondary osteon and midshaft femur cortical‐to‐total area in a human autopsy sample

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We report that femoral cortical thickness was strongly and negatively associated with secondary osteon porosity in an Australian autopsy sample, indicating that thicker cortices contained less porous secondary osteons. This allometric relationship held for the whole sample, males and sedentary well‐nourished individuals, but not for females or other ...

The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

Heterodonty in the teeth of the turiasaurian sauropod from Angeac‐Charente (Early Cretaceous, southwestern France): Comparison of anatomical and geometric morphometric approaches

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Turiasaurian teeth from Angeac‐Charente exhibit five dental morphotypes and reveal clear heterodonty and anteroposterior size gradient. Qualitative comparative anatomy quickly and efficiently identifies morphotypes, while 3D geometric morphometrics combined with machine learning refine ambiguous cases, demonstrating that qualitative and quantitative ...

Motivating Financial Companies Towards Compliance: The Effects of a Cooperative and Deterrent Regulatory Style in a Letter Experiment

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to examine the effects of a cooperative and deterrent style, portrayed through regulatory letters, on motivation and compliance. Study 1 examined a general sample (N = 492) in an online experiment, to assess motivation and compliance‐intentions. Study 2 focused on non‐compliant financial service providers (N = 2803)

Honor Concerns, Ambivalent Sexism and IPV Victimization in Italian and Turkish Samples: Country and Gender Differences

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is a significant global public health issue. Its prevalence and social acceptance exhibit substantial variation across cultural contexts. Cultural belief systems, such as honor culture and ambivalent sexism, have been identified as significant factors shaping gender roles and attitudes toward violence in ...

Livelihood Heterogeneity and Adoption of Combine Harvesters Under Flood Risk: Evidence From the Wetland Areas of Bangladesh

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2026.
Livelihood heterogeneity explains uneven combine harvester adoption in haor wetlands. PCA–cluster analysis identifies four farmer typologies shaping mechanization pathways. Adoption is highest among educated and networked land‐rich farmers, lowest among traditionalists.

Application of MANOVA for simultaneous trait-based optimization ofharvest and ripening stages in pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata)

Journal of Horticultural Sciences
This study utilized a multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) approach to identify the optimal harvest stage and post-harvest ripening treatments for pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) to maximize seed yield and quality.

Root and shoot phenotyping elucidate plant growth‐promoting microorganisms effects on wheat under water deficit

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Water scarcity represents a major constraint to crop productivity, increasing interest in sustainable strategies such as plant growth‐promoting microorganisms (PGPM). This study investigated the effects of a commercial PGPM consortium, composed of four Bacillus spp.
