Tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) were collected seasonally from four contaminated rivers in southwestern Taiwan for studies of morphological deformities that could be used as biomarkers of contamination. Morphological deformities found in tilapia were separated into 15 categories. Overall, the prevalence of deformities such as split fins, lower lip extension and gill deformities were significantly re...

The effects of stocking density of eggs and larvae were studied related to the morphological deformities appearance, percentage of survival, and growth rate, in order to achieve the most suitable stocking density for eggs and larvae in incubators and rearing tanks. The egg stocking densities were 500, 700 and 900 g per incubator for great sturgeon, 500 and 1000g per incubator for Persian sturge...

Purpose Wedging of L5 vertebral body and rounding of the surface of the sacrum are well-documented deformities associated with spondylolytic spondylolisthesis.The contribution of such deformities to vertebral slippage has been a matter of controversy, although the results of many follow-up clinical studies have Indicated that the deformities are a consequence of the slippage rather than the cau...

distraction osteogenesis (do), firstly introduced to the medical world by russian scientist ilizarov for long bone lenghtening in orthopedics can be considered as an appropriate substitute in the treatment of maxillofacial deformities. natural events occuring during the repair of a fractured bone segment not only lead to the desired bone length but also prevent from the undesired disadvantages ...

Honey bees (Apis mellifera) productively infected with Deformed wing virus (DWV) through Varroa destructor (V. destructor) during pupal stages develop into adults showing wing and other morphological deformities. Here, we report for the first time the occurrence of bumble bees (Bombus terrestris, Bombus pascuorum) exhibiting wing deformities resembling those seen in clinically DWV-infected hone...

The present study was conduct to assess the effect of Chlorpyrifos toxicity to behavioural and morphological manifestation of fry fish of Channa punctatus. The mortality data obtained through probit analysis was found to 0.365, 0.328, 0.269, and 0.253μl/l at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hrs respectively. The change in behaviour of fish such as convulsions, swimming erratically, vertical hanging, coughing...

The article presents an analysis of the prevalence malocclusion pathology and nature morphological changes in dental apparatus children adolescents with hearing loss living Bukhara region. anomalies deformities schoolchildren impairment was 76.5 ± 0.03%, were diagnosed 78.9%, 30.3% students. exceeded corresponding indicator conditionally healthy age groups In connection above, expediency develo...

Extracts and purified extracts of seeds of two plant species, Madhuca latifolia and Calophyllum inophyllum when evaluated against the 2nd instar larvae of Helicoverpa armigera reared on synthetic diet, exhibited high larval mortality, prolongation of developmental period, morphological deformities and highly significant reduction in adult emergence. The reduction in larval weights in the treatm...

The capture of four abnormal specimens the Striped panray, Zanobatus schoenleiniii was reported from shallow coastal waters surrounding touristic area Dakar, Republic Senegal, and among them, some displaying morphological deformities. A specimen exhibited a pectoral non-adherent to head, second tailless, two displayed scoliosis at level trunchal vertebrae tail. abnormalities are described their...
