Genetic Structure of Hartebeest Populations Straddling a Transition Zone between Morphotypes
(TextRoad Publication, 2011)
Variation in mitochondrial and microsatellite DNA was used to define the genetic structure of
hartebeest populations straddling a transition zone between two morphotypes (Alcelaphus
buselaphus cokei and A. b. lelwel) in ...
Identification of Selected Actinomycete Isolates and Characterization of Their Antibiotic Metabolites
(2008)
Three antagonistic actinomycetes coded as 14P, 28P and CS35 were isolated from the soil and identified based on morphological, physiological and color formation on Czapeks Dox agar, inorganic salt starch agar and glycerol ...
Scanning electron microscope study of the morphology of the reptilian lung: the Savanna monitor lizard Varanus exanthematicus and the pancake tortoise Malacochersus tornieri.
(1989)
The morphology of the lungs of two reptilian species, Varanus exanthematicus and Malacochersus tornieri, have been studied on gross preparations, latex casts, and critical-point-dried tissues. The shape of these lungs was ...
Hybridization Potential Between Cultivated Rice Oryza sativa and African Wild Rice Oryza longistaminata
(University of Nairobi, 2012)
Hybridization potential between cultivated rice (Oryza sativa) and wild rice (Oryza longistaminata) was studied in Kenya. At first seeds of the two parents were sown and their growth patterns established. At maturity, F1 ...
Functional respiratory morphology in the newborn quokka wallaby (Setonix brachyurus)
(Wiley, 2007)
A morphological and morphometric study of the lung of the newborn quokka wallaby (
Setonix brachyurus
) was
undertaken to assess its morphofunctional status at birth. Additionally, skin structure and morphometry ...
To be or not to be a species: use of reproductive isolation experiments and genetic analysis to clarify the taxonomic status of two Busseola (Lepidopter a: Noctuidae) species in Kenya
(Taylor & Fr ancis, 2013)
Phylogenetic analysis combined with chemical ecology can contribute to the delimitation of closely related
insect species, particularly in Lepidoptera. In this study, the taxonomic status of a species in the genus ...
Misclassification of Plasmodium infections by conventional microscopy and the impact of remedial training on the proficiency of laboratory technicians in species identification
(2013)
Malaria diagnosis is largely dependent on the demonstration of parasites in stained blood films by
conventional microscopy. Accurate identification of the infecting Plasmodium species relies on detailed examination
of ...
A 3D digital reconstruction of the components of the gas exchange tissue of the lung of the muscovy duck, Cairina moschata
(Wiley, 2005)
To elucidate the shape, size, and spatial arrangement and association of the terminal respiratory units of the avian lung, a three-dimensional (3D) computer-aided voxel reconstruction was generated from serial plastic ...
