Although it has been shown that in test collection based studies, stemming improves retrieval effectiveness in an information retrieval system, morphological variations of queries searching on the same topic are less well understood. This work examines the broad morphological variation that searchers of an Arabic retrieval system put into their queries. In this study, 15 native Arabic speakers ...

Variability of morphological characters used to separate Pratylenchus penetrans from other species of the genus was studied in a population originating from a single gravid female. Pronounced heteromorphism was observed and characterized. About 30% of females had a crenate-tail terminus. Several shapes of stylet knobs were characterized; 50% of them were anteriorly flattened to indented. The ou...

Mutation induction is considered as an effective way to enrich plant genetic variation, particularly for traits with a very low level of genetic variation. This research was conducted to assess genetic variation induced by gamma radiation in M2 and M3 mutant lines of canola (Brassica napus L.) by SSR and morphological characteristics and to identify useful mutants in terms of agronomic traits. ...

One hundred and three Aspergillus isolates belonging to 12 species including: A. alliaceus, A. candidus, A. carneus, A. flavus, A. fumigatus, A. niger var. niger, A. niger var. awamori, A. niveus, A. ochraceous, A. sydowii, A. terreus, A. ustus,and A. versicolor based on morphological characters were obtained from various sources. 

Flattening of the trochlear tali is clinically observed as structural and functional changes advance in patients with hemarthropathy ankle. However, degree this flattening has not yet been quantified, distribution morphological across talus defined. Chronologically sequential MR images both a hemophilic patient group (N = 5) single scan from nondiseased, sex-matched, control 11) were used to ta...

Genetic diversity amongst 21 induced mutant clones tolerant to salinity along with one non-irradiated sensitive clone of banana (Musa acuminata cv. Dwarf Cavendish (AAA)) were studied using morphological and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Out of the 30 phenotypic indices screened, 23 were polymorph and two traits, leaf habit and blotches color, were differentiated by non-irrad...
