La aplicación de Técnicas de Ordenación Multivariadasen la Entomología Application of Multivariate ordenation methods in Entomology

Revista de la Sociedad Entomológica Argentina, 2004
Los métodos de ordenación son herramientas multivariadas muy utilizadas en la Entomología. En este foro se presenta una introducción a éstos y breves explicaciones sobre distintas Técnicas: Análisis de Componentes Principales (ACP), Análisis de ...

Combined Antiresorptive and Anabolic Drug Approach in Osteogenesis Imperfecta Zebrafish Models: A Geometric Morphometrics and Shape Analysis Perspective

Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Public Health
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heritable connective tissue disorder primarily affecting type I collagen biosynthesis, leading to brittle bones and skeletal deformities.

Generalized Procrustes Analysis

Psychometrika, 1975
Suppose Pi(i) (i = 1, 2, ..., m, j = 1, 2, ..., n) give the locations of mn points in p-dimensional space. Collectively these may be regarded as m configurations, or scalings, each of n points in p-dimensions. The problem is investigated of translating, rotating, reflecting and scaling the m configurations to minimize the goodness-of-fit criterion Σi ...

Size‐, sex‐ and site‐dependent morphological variation in the stone flounder (Kareius bicoloratus) from Korean coastal waters

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Kareius bicoloratus is a commercially important flatfish in Korean coastal fisheries and an ecologically relevant benthic species in nearshore ecosystems. To evaluate how multiple biological and environmental factors jointly shape flatfish morphology, we analysed 81 morphometric indices and two‐dimensional geometric morphometrics (GMM) in wild

Size, not phylogeny, explains the morphology of the endosseous labyrinth in the crown clade Crocodylia

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 558-574, April 2025.
Here, we present the most complete dataset to date on the endosseous labyrinths of extant crocodylians. Using 3D geometric morphometrics, we show that allometry constitutes a major contributor of the shape variation of the crocodylian endosseous labyrinths and that the development of this structure is likely linked to the braincase conformation, in all

Does ulnar curvature covary with locomotion and substrate use in cercopithecids?

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates ulnar curvature in cercopithecids in relation to locomotor behaviors, introducing an analysis of anteroposterior and mediolateral curvature, using geometric morphometric on 167 specimens (23 species). Although the two curvatures distinguish arboreal and terrestrial quadrupeds, their moderate covariation suggests that they ...

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 ...

The variability of giraffe skull morphology

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
What does giraffe skull shape tell us about their development and evolution? Abstract Giraffe (Giraffa spp.) are among the most unique and charismatic extant animals, largely due to their distinct morphology. The evolutionary and developmental origin of ossicones is a key factor in giraffid biology, yet other features building their characteristic head

Phenotypic integration and the organization of discrete facial variation

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Integration patterns shape the prevalence of discrete facial trait combinations. Abstract Facial morphology results from coordinated developmental and evolutionary processes that produce structured patterns of covariation among traits. Therefore, individual faces reflect integrated anatomical configurations rather than collections of isolated traits ...

Morfometría de poblaciones humanas prehistóricas: Una comparación de técnicas tradicionales y geométricas

Intersecciones en Antropología, 2003
El objetivo de este trabajo es comparar técnicas derivadas de la morfometría tradicional y geométrica para el análisis de la forma del esqueleto facial a nivel intraespecífico.
