The genus Dipsacus is characterized by a remarkable bidirectional flowering sequence and a rare phyllotactic pattern. Considering that flower initiation and flowering sequence may be interconnected, we document the development of the head meristem in Dipsacus fullonum. Our results indicate a gradual change in the geometry of the head meristem beginning with a dome shaped stage, continuing with ...

This article describes a fuzzy logic-based method optimized for the dome control of robotic astronomical observatory. A Mamdani inference has been developed in order to make decision open or close dome. The input variables are obtained from data received weather station besides percentage cloudy sky as derived by two allsky cameras. software tested at BOOTES-1 observatory part BOOTES Global Net...

The dome-shaped radiopaque shadows frequently seen on the floor of the maxillary sinus, and sometimes inaccurately referred to as antral mucoceles, appear to represent focal accumulation of inflammatory exudate that lifts the epithelial lining of the sinus and the periosteum away from the underlying bone to form the characteristically shaped structures. Their histologic appearance is therefore ...
