Sexual dimorphism of Malaysian Mahseer, Tor tambroides broodstock reared in captivity: Morphometric measurements dataset

Histo-morphological development of the digestive tract of larval hybrid Malaysian mahseer (Barbonymus gonionotus ♀ × Tor tambroides ♂)

New carp hybrids are being developed for the aquaculture industry to support rising seafood demands. The present study was carried out to observe the changes in digestive tract, histology and functional capabilities of the new hybrid carp larvae for a better understanding of its digestive capability and the prediction of its best weaning time to a compound diet. A tubal digestive tract was elon...

Genetic Structure and Preliminary Findings of Cryptic Diversity of the Malaysian Mahseer (Tor tambroides Valenciennes: Cyprinidae) Inferred from Mitochondrial DNA and Microsatellite Analyses

This study examines the population genetic structure of Tor tambroides, an important freshwater fish species in Malaysia, using fifteen polymorphic microsatellite loci and sequencing of 464 base pairs of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) gene. A total of 152 mahseer samples were collected from eight populations throughout the Malaysia river system. Microsatellites results found hig...

Sexual Dimorphism Using Geometric Morphometric Approach

Sexual dimorphism of the suprascapular notch – morphometric study

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...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Based Morphometric Assessment of Sexual Dimorphism of Corpus Callosum

Introduction: Interhemispheric transmission of signal is done by corpus callosum (CC) as the largest fiber tract in brain. CC comprised 5 segments of rostrum, genu, body, isthmus, and splenium. Contradictory reports exist about sexual dimorphism of CC. We designed this study to assess probable sexual differences of CC and its different parts in men and women. Methods: We analyzed magnetic reso...
