Determination of sex from humerus: discriminant analysis
Australian Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2013The present study was conducted on 80 right humeri (40 male and 40 female). Six measurements of humerus were taken. The mean values of five measurements were significantly higher in males as compared to females (P

Sex Determination by Discriminant Function Analysis of Lumbar Vertebrae
Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2014AbstractSex determination is critical for developing the biological profile of unidentified skeletal remains. When more commonly used elements (os coxa, cranium) for sexing are not available, methods utilizing other skeletal elements are needed. This study aims to assess the degree of sexual dimorphism of the lumbar vertebrae and develop discriminant ...

Sex determination from calcaneus in Korean using discriminant analysis
Forensic Science International, 2013The calcaneus can be used for the differentiation of sex and populations using discriminant function equations. This bone has been used for sex determination in some population groups, but it has not been used for sex determination in Koreans until now.

Transcriptome profile analysis of floral sex determination in cucumber
Journal of Plant Physiology, 2010Cucumber has been widely studied as a model for floral sex determination. In this investigation, we performed genome-wide transcriptional profiling of apical tissue of a gynoecious mutant (Csg-G) and the monoecious wild-type (Csg-M) of cucumber in an attempt to isolate genes involved in sex determination, using the Solexa technology.

Ancestral state reconstruction analysis of hymenopteran sex determination mechanisms
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2009AbstractWe provide the first phylogenetic evidence supporting complementary sex determination (CSD) as the ancestral mechanism for haplodiploidy in the Hymenoptera. It is currently not possible, however, to distinguish the evolutionary polarity of single locus (sl) CSD and multiple‐locus (ml) CSD given the available data.

Sex determination problems in forensic genetic analysis
Forensic Science International: Genetics Supplement Series, 2013Abstract Sex determination is important in forensic cases of missing persons, rape or to establish the sexual identity. There are molecular tools to determine the sex such as the simultaneous quantification of autosomal DNA and Y chromosome and the typification of amelogenin and Y chromosome markers but do not always yield accurate data on the ...

Sex determination of finnish crania by discriminant function analysis
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1966AbstractUsing multivariant discriminant function analysis, the sex of 232 Finnish crania of known sex was determined. Eight measurements were used to form two discriminant functions. In 80% of cases the sex determination by means of the discriminant functions was identical with the original information.

Sex determination from the pubis by discriminant function analysis
Forensic Science International, 1995A total of 122 adult human pubes (66 males and 56 females) are used in this study of a discriminant function analysis for determining sex from four pubic measurements: the angle formed by the middle line of the superior ramus and inferior ramus of pubis (in degrees, X1), subpubic angle (in degrees, X2), the minimum distance from the symphyseal surface ...

A comparative analysis of vertebrate sex determination.
Novartis Foundation symposium, 2002Sex determination in vertebrates is controlled by a variety of mechanisms. We compared the expression of SF1, DAX1, DMRT1, SOX9 and AMH during gonadogenesis in the mouse, chicken and alligator embryo. In contrast to the expression profile of Sf1 in mouse embryos, chicken and alligator embryos show higher levels of Sf1 expression in the developing ...

Sex determination by discriminant function analysis of lateral cranial form
Forensic Science International, 1992To sex the cranium, morphological features of cranial specimens were quantified with a personal computer that automatically measures distance and gradient for 39 craniometric points in the lateral contour line of the skull, which were digitized by a tablet digitizer connected to the computer. Specimens used for discriminant analysis were 50 male and 50
