Morphometric measurements for sexual dimorphism in the Campolina horse breed

چکیده
Abstract: The objective of this work was to distinguish the sexual dimorphism horses Campolina breed, by morphometric measurements, and classify them according sex, using discriminating functions. Two-hundred fifteen were measured, 39 measurements evaluated. analysis covariance discriminant performed. Males taller showed a wider chest, greater scapular-humeral angle, larger neck, both in length circumference. Females had heart girth, hips, opening coxal-ground femorotibial angles. Regarding classification, circumference (85.58%) more accurate differentiation than linear (83.26%) angular (73.02%) ones. As classification error, total animals 10 20% females categorized as males. In addition, 11 38% males females. It can be concluded that evaluated, 22 are responsible for horse breed. Circumference provide assertive determine dimorphism. Angular show errors regarding gender horses.

Reduced Skull Sexual Dimorphism in a Local Sheep Breed
This study estimated the magnitude of sexual dimorphism in a relict sheep from Catalunya (NE Spain), called Fardasca,using geometric morphometric techniques. For these analyses, a total of 18 skull specimens (2 adult males and 16 females) were studied. Our results suggest that the breed is not cranially dimorphic, so sex determination using landmarks described here as criteria is likely to yiel...

INTRODUCTION The concept of the study was to compare the morphometry of the suprascapular notch (SSN) in females and males because its size and shape may be a factor in suprascapular nerve entrapment. MATERIAL AND METHODS The measurements of 81 scapulae included morphological length and width, maximal width and length projection of the scapular spine, and width and length of the glenoid cavit...
