Geometric morphometrics and phylogeny
This paper reviews some of the important properties of geometric morphometric shape variables and discusses the advantages and limitations of the use of such data in studies of phylogeny. A method for fitting morphometric data to a phylogeny (i.e., estimating ancestral states of the shape variables) is presented using the squared-change parsimony criterion for estimation. These results are then...
متن کاملFactors affecting the distribution and abundance of Western grey kangaroos
All the remnants of native vegetation in a 1680 km2 area of the central wheatbelt of Western Australia were assessed for use by two species of kangaroo (Western grey kangaroo Macropus fuliginosus and euro M. robustus). Use was determined from faecal pellet density. Densities over large areas (100 km2) varied with the amount of residual native vegetation in the area. The less the vegetation the ...
متن کاملDistribution of Serratia species in clinical specimens.
Eighty-five strains of Serratia were speciated. The majority were Serratia marcescens and were recovered from a variety of clinical specimens. S. liquefaciens and S. rubidaea were recovered only from sputum.
متن کاملDistribution of hemolytic streptococci in respiratory specimens.
One hundred thirty-seven isolates of beta-hemolytic streptococci were recovered from 623 pharyngeal cultures. Twenty-nine percent of these were group A, 10% were group B, 31% were group C, 11% were group F, 12% were group G, and 7% could not be grouped. The significance of non-group A isolates in pharyngitis could not be evaluated in the absence of viral and serological studies. Hemolytic strep...
متن کاملGeometric Morphometrics
The field of morphometrics is developing quickly and recent advances allow for geometric techniques to be applied easily to many zoological problems. This article briefly introduces geometric morphometric techniques and then reviews selected areas where those techniques have been applied to questions of general interest. This article is relevant to non-specialists looking for an entry into geom...
