Elatine L. contains ca. 25 small, herbaceous, annual species distributed in ephemeral waters in both hemispheres. All species are amphibious and characterized by a high degree of morphological variability. The importance of seed morphology in Elatine taxonomy has been emphasized by many authors. The degree of seed curvature and seed coat reticulation have been traditionally considered very impo...

Measurements of closely related sets of classical and truss dimensions were analyzed to discriminate species of scorpaenidae including the dark banded rockfish, Sebastes inermis, the black rockfish, S. schlegeli, and gobioninae including the striped shiner, Pungtungia herzi, and the slender shiner, Pseudopungtungia tenuicorpa. The measurements of the dimensions were arc sin square root transfor...

The present study was undertaken measuring a total of 78 animals of Red Chittagong Cattle (RCC) of different ages and sexes maintained under a USDA funded RCC project at Bangladesh agricultural University (BAU) Dairy Farm, Mymensingh. The experiment was conducted to estimate different body measurements of RCC at different age groups. A total of 12 different age groups at 6 months interval were ...

The main aims of this research were to study possible differences in objective morphometric sperm characteristics, establish normative sperm morphometry standards, and evaluate the presumed different subpopulation distribution of avian spermatozoa from the rooster (Gallus domesticus ) and Guinea fowl (Numida meleagris ) as model avian species. Seventy-two ejaculates (36 per species studied) wer...

The aim of this research was to describe thyroid cartilage morphometry in the population of Eastern Slavonia in detail. The research was carried out on 68 samples of adult thyroid cartilages. There was statistically significant difference between all analysed parameters in male and female samples, except for the distance between the superior horns tips. All parameters had greater values in men,...

A number of studies from imaging data have reported neuroanatomical correlates of intelligence. However, studies related to intelligence assessing all possible aspects of cortical structure have been little addressed. We examined the relationship between human intelligence and morphometric characteristics of cortical surface such as gray matter volume, surface area, thickness, convolution, and ...

The genus Malassezia has been considered an emergent pathogen [4] and could be found in seborrheic dermatitis lesions as spherical yeast cell shapes and in pityriasis versicolor forming short hyphae with yeast cells [3]. Picrosirius is used in histology to stain collagen [5] and has been also used to stain Cryptoccoccus spp. and Paracoccidioides brasiliensis [1,2]. However, there are not studie...
