This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of paclobutrazol as an anti-gibberellin on some morpho-physiological characteristics of Petunia × grandiflora ‘Bravo Blue’, and determine the optimum concentration of paclobutrazol for drought resistance in this plant. The experiment was carried out as factorial based on completely randomized design with three replications in greenhouse. T...

Understanding the microanatomy of the facial nerve is vital to functional restoration of facial nerve injury. This study aimed to locate the spatial orientation of five branches in the extratemporal trunk of the rat facial nerve (ETFN). Fifteen adult Sprague-Dawley albino rats were divided randomly into five groups corresponding to the five facial nerves. Fluoro-Gold(™) (FG) was applied to one ...

Corresponding retinal nerve fibres begin their path in the eyes and end in a single visual cortical cell. Because of this arrangement, lesions in the anterior visual pathway produce incongruent visual field defects and in the posterior pathway congruent field defects. The lateral geniculate body is on the anterior third of the visual pathway. A lesion of this nucleus produces moderately to comp...

Although surgical procedures are often performed over the posterior head and neck, surgical landmarks for avoiding the cutaneous nerves in this region are surprisingly lacking in the literature. Twelve adult cadaveric specimens underwent dissection of the cutaneous nerves overlying the posterior head and neck, and mensuration was made between these structures and easily identifiable surrounding...

BACKGROUND It is important to understand the anatomical relationship between the medial and lateral branches of superficial radial nerve (SRN) and the first dorsal compartment to prevent and minimize possible injury to these nerves during various procedures around the tip of radial styloid process (RSP). OBJECTIVE To delineate the anatomical location of the SRN in relation to the extensor pol...

With the increase of large shopping malls, there are many parking spaces in complex environments, which increases difficulty finding vehicles such environments. To upgrade consumer's experience, some car manufacturers have proposed detecting space numbers spaces. The detection number environments has problems as diversified background numbers, tilted direction and small scale. Since no scholar ...

tendon just proximal to the navicular bone tubercle and bifurcates to medial and lateral branches. The medial branch of the deep branch of the medial plantar artery nourishes the skin of the medial aspect of the foot along the midlateral line of the first metacarpus. A flap can be extended to the middle of the first metacarpus distally and the medial malleolus proximally. The maximum size of a ...
