Correlated evolution of sternal keel length and ilium length in birds
The interplay between the pectoral module (the pectoral girdle and limbs) and the pelvic module (the pelvic girdle and limbs) plays a key role in shaping avian evolution, but prior empirical studies on trait covariation between the two modules are limited. Here we empirically test whether (size-corrected) sternal keel length and ilium length are correlated during avian evolution using phylogene...
متن کاملNeck Linker Length Determin
Defining the mechanical and biochemical determinates of kinesin processivity is important for understanding how diverse kinesins are tuned for specific cellular functions. Because transmission of mechanical forces through the 14–18 amino acid neck linker domain underlies coordinated stepping [1–6], we investigated the role of neck linker length, charge, and structure in kinesin-1 and kinesin-2 ...
متن کاملStudies on length-weight and length-length relationships of a catfish Eutropiichthyes vacha Hamilton (Schilbeidae: Silurifo-
Present study describes the length-weight (LWR) and length-length (LLR) relationships of a freshwater catfish Eutropiichthyes vacha Hamilton from Indus River, Sindh, Pakistan. A total of 281 specimen of E. vacha were collected from fisherman?s catch from February 2005 to January 2006, are used for this study. The parameters a and b of the length-weight relationship were calculated as W= aLb are...
متن کاملLeg Length Discrepancy: Assessment and Secondary Effects
Leg length discrepancy can be noticed commonly in the general population occurring naturally without any secondary side effects it also can be noticed in some patient after surgical treatment of fractures or joint replacement surgery. The presence of this discrepancy can be assessed clinically and can be precisely measured using imaging techniques. LLD can badly affect the lower back, pelvis, h...
متن کاملBiomechanical implications of mild leg length inequality.
The effect of mild leg length inequality (lower extremity length difference less than 3 cm) on posture and gait has been the source of much controversy. Many opinions have been expressed both for and against the need for intervention to reduce the magnitude of the discrepancy. This paper emphasizes the need for accurate and reliable assessment of leg length differences using a clinically functi...
