17. Analysis of Selected Hominoid Joint Surfaces Using Laser Scanning and Geometric Morphometrics: A Preliminary Report

The comparative study of intra-specific variations in the various populations of Clinopodes flavidus (Geophlilomorpha, Geophilidae) in Alborz Mountain, using geometric morphometrics

The aim of this study was to determine the variations among cephalic plates of individuals in two populations of Clinopodes flavidus in Alborz Mountains, by means of landmark-based techniques of geometric morphometrics. Therefore, 17 landmarks and semi-landmarks on the coxosternite of poison claw and seven landmarks and semi-landmarks on the tarsangulum of poison claw were selected using TpsDig...

اثر مداخلات مختلف بر مورفولوژی دندان Bleach شده با لیزر: ارزیابی با میکروسکوپ الکترونی روبشی

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effect of dental surface treatment with Er:YAG , Nd:YAG ,CO2 lasers and sodium ascorbate to recently laser bleached enamel by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Methods: 15caries-free extracted human third molars were selected for this study. The samples were bleached by Heydent JW power activated by diode laser 810 nm. After 7 d...

Geometric morphometric comparison of trout barb (Capoeta trutta) in Bushehr basin

Some 78 specimencs of trout barb (Capoeta trutta) from four rivers of Bushehr Basin were caught by seine net to compare their morphology using geometric morphometrics. The specimens after anestethizing in 1% clove oil, were fixed in bufferd 10% formalin and transferred to the Isfahan University of Technology Ichthyology Museum for further studies. Geometric morphometric method were applied to a...

Comparison study of morphological variations among populations of Blennies, Omobranchus genus, in the Iranian Coasts of the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman using Geometric Morphometrics Method

The objective of this study was to determine the body shape variations among the Blenny populations, Omobranchus genus in the Iranian Coasts of the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, using landmark-based geometric morphometrics. Therefore, a total of 120 specimens of Omobranchus genus including the species of Omobranchus fasciolatus (80 specimens from Hengam, Hormuz and Daryabozorg stations), O...
