Reading hominin life history in fossil bones and teeth: methods to test hypotheses regarding its evolution

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human life history is derived compared to that of our closest living relatives, the great apes. It has been suggested that these derived traits are causally related to aspects of our ecology, social behaviour and cognitive abilities. However, resolving this requires that we know the evolutionary trajectory of our distinctive pattern of growth,

Protein turnover downstream of the Nipbl/CRL4 axis contributes to abnormal development in zebrafish embryos

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Mutations in cohesins cause cohesinopathies such as Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) and Roberts Syndrome (RBS). Prior findings demonstrate that Esco2 (a cohesin activator) and Smc3 (a core cohesin subunit) regulate the CRL4 E3 ubiquitin ligase. SMC3 mutations, however, account for a small percentage of CdLS.

Otolith shape analysis of the austral sardine (Sprattus fuegensis) in the Patagonian inner sea of Chile.

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
The austral sardine has an extensive distribution within inner and outer waters along fiords, channels, and the continental shelf of the Chilean Patagonia, from Puerto Montt to Tierra del Fuego and extending to southern Argentina.

Otolith shape analysis supports three cryptic species in the Stellifer punctatissimus complex (Acanthuriformes: Sciaenidae)

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology, 2022
Sciaenidae species (croakers and drums) are known for specializations in their sensory apparatus, such as otoliths and lateral line. Within this family, some Stelliferinae members remain taxonomically unresolved due to their cryptic aspects and low ...

Potential directional asymmetry of the otolith shape tested on the red mullet (Mullus barbatus) in the Mediterranean Sea: comparative analysis of 2D and 3D otolith shape data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
A wide number of techniques were developed and applied to identify and discriminate stocks. Among them, otolith’s shape, which is affected by environment and genetic factors, can be used as a tool to identify the populations within the species. Before to identify the boundaries of stocks, the potential drivers, which control the otolith shape, must be ...

Stock Identification of Brown-Striped Snapper, Lutjanus vitta (Qouy and Gaimard, 1824), Inferred From Otolith Shape Analysis off the Coast of Iligan Bay, Mindanao, Philippines

open access: yesAsian Fisheries Science
Otolith shape analysis is an effective method that has been used to separate stocks based on their phenotypic traits. The brown-striped snapper, Lutjanus vitta (Quoy and Gaimard, 1824), is an important component of the fish catch in Iligan Bay ...

Ocean acidification reshapes the otolith-body allometry of growth in juvenile seabream [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceThe effects of elevated CO2 partial pressure (pCO2) on otolith calcification and on the coupling between the somatic and otolith growth were investigated in juvenile gilthead seabream Sparus aurata.

Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials to Diagnose Vestibular Neuritis: A Scoping Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Standardization of stimulation and recording protocols is essential to improve comparability across VEMP studies. Integrating cervical and ocular VEMPs with other vestibular tests enhances diagnostic accuracy and supports precise localization of vestibular neuritis.

Patterns of growth, mortality, and size of the tropical damselfish Acanthochromis polyacanthus across the continental shelf of the Great Barrier Reef [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Age-based analyses were used to demonstrate consistent differences in growth between populations of Acanthochromis polyacanthus (Pomacentridae) collected at three distance strata across the continental shelf (inner, mid-, and outer shelf) of the central

Otolith shape and size: The importance of age when determining indices for fish-stock separation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Stock-separation of highly mobile Clupeids (sprat – Sprattus sprattus and herring – Clupea harengus) using otolith morphometrics was explored. Analysis focused on three stock discrimination problems with the aim of reassigning individual otoliths to ...
