During kidney development, several discrete steps generate its three-dimensional pattern including specific branch types, regional differential growth of stems, the specific axes of growth and temporal progression of the pattern. The ureteric bud undergoes three different types of branching. In the first, terminal bifid type, a lateral branch arises and immediately bifurcates to form two termin...

Megaphyll leaf evolution was a critical event in Earth history that had major consequences for the biotic regulation of the global environment. Zimmermann's telome theory has been widely accepted for over seventy years as the leading explanation for this evolutionary innovation. According to the telome theory, megaphylls evolved from the three-dimensional lateral branches of early vascular land...

in order to investigate the response of coneflower to applying chemical fertilizer and incorporation with municipal solid waste compost (mswc), a pot experiment was conducted as completely randomized design with six treatments included: control (without applying chemical fertilizer and compost), chemical fertilizer (150 kg n, 120 kg p2o5 and 250 kg k2o per hectare from urea, triple super phosph...

the present investigation was carried out to study the variability, heritability, correlations and path coefficient analysis in 14 kabuli type chickpea genotypes during three successive cropping seasons (2011-14), in a randomized complete block design with four replications. combined analysis suggested significant differences between genotypes for most of characteristics. the highest phenotypic...

In the leafy mutant of Arabidopsis, most of the lateral meristems that are fated to develop as flowers in a wild-type plant develop as inflorescence branches, whereas a few develop as abnormal flowers consisting of whorls of sepals and carpels. We have isolated several new alleles of leafy and constructed a series of double mutants with leafy and other homeotic mutants affecting floral developm...

Address for Correspondence: Dr. Suma H Y, Associate Professor, Department of Anatomy, JIPMER Academic Centre, JIPMER, Dhanvantrinagar, Puducherry-605006, India. E-Mail: [email protected] Variants in brachial plexus and its branches are significant in everyday clinical practice. During student dissection, we came across multiple variations of lateral cord, and its branches on the left arm of a ...
