Morphological observations on the diapausing blastocyst of some macropodid marsupials

the impact of morphological awareness on the vocabulary development of the iranian efl students

this study investigated the impact of explicit instruction of morphemic analysis and synthesis on the vocabulary development of the students. the participants were 90 junior high school students divided into two experimental groups and one control group. morphological awareness techniques (analysis/synthesis) and conventional techniques were used to teach vocabulary in the experimental groups a...

Some observations on the feeding of the guinea pig

Detection of cryptic species of Rugopharynx (Nematoda: Strongylida) from the stomachs of Australian macropodid marsupials

Sequences of the internal transcribed spacers of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS-1 and ITS-2) were determined for species of the genus Rugopharynx and Rugonema labiatum, nematodes from the stomachs of macropodid marsupials. Phylogenetic analyses of the aligned sequence data were conducted. The relationships provided molecular support for all species currently recognised, some of which are based on m...

Some observations on the morphological index in lepromatous leprosy.

The Morphological Index ( M . l . ) may be defined as the average of the percentages of morphologi­ cally normal forms ( ' solid rods' ) of Myco. leprae found in smears taken from a given number of sites by a standard procedure and stained and examined by a standard technique. It thus indi­ cates the proportion of bacilli that are presumably viable and capable of multiplying. There is the same ...

Foraging behavior of three Tasmanian macropodid marsupials in response to present and historical predation threat

It is often essential to understand historical selection regimes to explain current traits. We studied antipredator behavior of three Tasmanian macropodid marsupials – Forester kangaroos Macropus giganteus, Bennett’s wallabies M. rufogriseus, and Tasmanian pademelons Thylogale billardierii – to understand how antipredator behavior functions in a relatively intact predator community. We also com...
