The evolution of sperm morphometry in pheasants [PDF]
, 2007 Postcopulatory sexual selection is thought to be a potent evolutionary force driving the diversification of sperm shape and function across species. In birds, insemination and fertilisation are separated in time and sperm storage increases the duration

Morphometric Shape Analysis with Measurement Covariance Estimates [PDF]
Procedings of the British Machine Vision Conference 2011, 2011 We propose a shape analysis system based upon the description of landmarks with measurement covariance, which extends statistical linear modelling processes to ‘pseudo landmarks’ for scientific studies. We discuss the properties of our approach and how measurement covariances can be considered characteristic of the local shape. Our formulation includes

Differentiation of Trichuris species using a morphometric approach [PDF]
, 2019 Trichuris trichiura is a nematode considered as the whipworm present in humans and primates. The systematics of the genus Trichuris is complex. Morphological studies of Trichuris isolated from primates and humans conclude that the species infecting these

Advances in horse morphometric measurements using LiDAR
Computers and Electronics in Agriculture, 2020 Zoometric measurements have a potential value in differentialing between individuals and within populations. The measurement of body size in horses and livestock plays a significant role in functional longevity, production, and reproductive performance and health.

Discovery and Targeted Proteomic Studies Reveal Striatal Markers Validated for Huntington's Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Clinical trials for Huntington's disease (HD) enrolling persons before clinical motor diagnosis (CMD) lack validated biomarkers. This study aimed to conduct an unbiased discovery analysis and a targeted examination of proteomic biomarkers scrutinized by clinical validation. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from PREDICT‐HD and
