Sperm morphology was evaluated (using Blom classification) in 44 ejaculates of 11 bulls and 44 ejaculates of 11 boars. Significant differences in sperm morphology were found between bulls and boars. In addition, the correlations between frequency of morphological changes and morphometrical traits of boar spermatozoa were demonstrated. More morphological anomalies of spermatozoa were recorded in...

On Kranjsko polje in central Slovenia, carbonate conglomerates have been dated to several Pleistocene glacial phases by relative dating based on the morphostratigrafic mapping and borehole data, and by paleomagnetic and 10Be analyses. To define how the age of conglomerates determines the geomorphological characteristics of karst surface features, morphometrical and distributive spatial analyses...

Objective(s):Leptin is a novel and interesting hormone for anyone trying to lose weight, but its effects on male gonad structure in longitudinal study is unknown. The present study was designed to explore morphometrical changes of mouse testicular tissue after long-term administration of leptin. Materials and Methods:Thirty healthy mature male mice were randomly assigned to either control (n=15...
