Dentigerous cysts are benign odontogenic cysts that are related to the crowns of permanent teeth. The lesion in this study was detected in a routine panoramic radiograph that revealed a well-defined osteolytic lesion that measured 2.5 cm in diameter, with the crown of the mandibular permanent second premolar displaced to the lower border of the mandible. The apex of the tooth was still open. Th...

Coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens (D. Don) End!.) trees in different canopy strata and crown positions were sampled to develop relationships between sapwood cross-sectional area and projected leaf area. Sampling occurred during the summers of 2000 and 2001 and covered tree heights ranging from 7.7 to 45.2 m and diameters at breast height ranging from 9.4 to 92.7 cm. Foliage morphology varied ...

The early detection of populations of a forest pest is important to begin initial control efforts, minimizing the risk of further spread and impact. Emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire) is an introduced pestiferous insect of ash (Fraxinus spp. L.) in North America. The effectiveness of trapping techniques, including girdled trap trees with sticky bands and purple prism traps, was t...

Tree detection and tree crown delineation from Airborne LiDAR has been focusing mostly on utilizing the canopy height model (CHM). This paper presents a method for individual tree crown delineation based on densities of high points (DHP) from the high resolution Airborne LiDAR. The DHP method relies on the fact that the density of received laser pulses above a certain height is high at the cent...

The tropical emergent tree Hyeronima alchorneoides has large decreases in leaf size with tree age: 1200 cm(2) at 1 yr, 900 cm(2) at 3 yr, 200 cm(2) at 11 yr, and 80 cm(2) in old (>30 yr) individuals. We tracked leaf growth and physiological attributes on trees of three different ages (1, 3, and 11 yr) to determine the developmental basis and functional consequences of this variation. Leaves on ...

High density airborne LiDAR data has been used to provide detailed information on tree canopy structure. Recent research has reported that it is difficult to determine where the LiDAR data errors appear on the tree crown, as the returns generally underestimate tree height. This study introduces a novel way to assess vertical and horizontal patterns of airborne LiDAR data error using an error ma...

The decline in production of cabbage Indonesia is due to the lack intensive and traditional cultivation this plant, ie without use spacing frequency that not appropriate, resulting a seizure nutrients from soil by plants organ cover plant itself which inhibits photosynthesis process. So research was conducted know effect effective can increase growth plants. This study used single factor random...

Sixteen African giant rats (Cricetomys gambianus Waterhouse), consisting of 8 male and 8 female rats, were used to determine neurocranial measurements of the skulls. The mean neurocranial volume was 5.06 + or - 0.05 mL, neurocranial length was 3.33 + or - 0.08 cm, and the neurocranial height and index were 1.39 + or - + or - 0.04 cm and 41.74%, respectively. The mean whole skull length and heig...

Objective: Evaluate the effect of three types substrate and different shoot lengths onthe rooting Carica papaya L. shoots.Design/ methodology/ approach: This experiment followed a completely randomizeddesign with 2×3 factorial arrangement. Shoots 30 40 cm length werecollected in March 2018 from lateral branches plants (Carica L.)native to various regions Guerrero. were placed substrates: 1)sand...
