Normal human subjects and patients with lesions of the olivocerebellar system threw balls of clay at a visual target while wearing wedge prism spectacles. Normal subjects initially threw in the direction of prism-bent gaze, but with repeated throws adapted to hit the target. Patients with generalized cerebellar atrophy, inferior olive hypertrophy, or focal infarcts in the distribution of the po...

Incomplete panicle exsertion in almost all the WA-based CMS lines is one of the major impediments in obtaining higher seed yield in hybrid rice breeding programs. Exploitation of Elongated Uppermost Internode (eui) mutants in rice is a viable genetic strategy to solve this problem. Present study was undertaken with an aim of characterizing the elongated uppermost internode mutants in rice germp...

BACKGROUND White matter (WM) and grey matter (GM) brain damage in multiple sclerosis (MS) is widespread, but the extent of cerebellar involvement and impact on disability needs to be clarified. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess cerebellar WM and GM atrophy and the degree of fibre coherence in the main cerebellar connections, and their contribution to disability in relapsing-remitting MS (R...

INTRODUCTION Many neurologic and psychiatric disorders are thought to be due to, or result in, developmental errors in neuronal cerebellar connectivity. In this connectivity analysis, we studied the developmental time-course of cerebellar peduncle pathways in pediatric and young adult subjects. METHODS A cohort of 80 subjects, newborns to young adults, was studied on a 3T MR system with 30 di...
