If you have the volition: How to assess vole testis mass asymmetry in non-targeted data sets
We determined the type of asymmetry and assessed its relationship with reproductive-age status in the testis mass of the bank vole ( Clethrionomys...

Lateral asymmetry of emotional arousal as a biomarker of attributional style during darts competitions
According to the Multiple Arousal Theory, electrodermal activity (EDA) is not uniform across the body. However, the psychological meaning of a left...

Application of copy number variation sequencing combined with whole exome sequencing in prenatal left–right asymmetry disorders
BackgroundLeft–right (LR) asymmetry disorders present a complex etiology, with genetic factors emerging as a primary contributor. This study aims to...

Fluctuating Asymmetry of Some Characteristics in the Sakhalin Redfin Pseudaspius sachalinensis (Nikolskii, 1889) (CYPRINIFORMES, LEUCISCIDAE)
AbstractThe fluctuating asymmetry of seven characteristics is studied in five samples of the Sakhalin redfin Pseudaspius sachalinensis (Nikolskii,...

Light asymmetry explains species diversity decline better in forb communities than in grass communities after N and P addition
Exogenous Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) addition are known to increase productivity while inducing species diversity decline in the semiarid...

Effects of Auditory Spatial Masking on the Interhemispheric Asymmetry of Evoked Responses
AbstractThe interhemispheric asymmetry of electrical brain activity was investigated in the conditions of spatial auditory masking. Moving test...

Maintenance of bacterial outer membrane lipid asymmetry: insight into MlaA
The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria acts as an effective barrier to protect against toxic compounds. By nature, the OM is asymmetric...

Fetal temporal sulcus depth asymmetry has prognostic value for language development
In most humans, the superior temporal sulcus (STS) shows a rightward depth asymmetry. This asymmetry can not only be observed in adults, but is...

Dissociable brain structural asymmetry patterns reveal unique phenome-wide profiles
Broca reported ~150 years ago that particular lesions of the left hemisphere impair speech. Since then, other brain regions have been reported to...

Recent allopolyploidization and transcriptomic asymmetry in the mangrove shrub Acanthus tetraploideus
BackgroundMangrove species are vital to the ecosystems of tropical and subtropical coastlines worldwide. Despite the underexplored role of...

Abnormalities and Bilateral Asymmetry of Otoliths in Arctic Charr Salvelinus alpinus Complex (Salmonidae) from Lakes Lama and Kapchuk, Taimyr
AbstractOtolith abnormalities and bilateral asymmetry are analyzed in five reproductively isolated forms and natural F1 hybrids between the forms in...
-
Structural and functional asymmetry of the neonatal cerebral cortex
Features of brain asymmetry have been implicated in a broad range of cognitive processes; however, their origins are still poorly understood. Here we...

Urban Life Affects Differentiation and Phenotypic Variation but not Asymmetry in a Fully Terrestrial Salamander
The environmental transformations associated with cities are expected to affect organisms at the demographic, phenotypic, and evolutionary level,...

Morphological Asymmetry of Antennae and Behavioral Grooming Asymmetries in the Cockroach Periplaneta americana L.
AbstractAnimal behaviors are often characterized by functional asymmetry, or lateralization, which is at least in part due to morphological asymmetry...

Morphological index and karyotype asymmetry of eight seeded diploid and non-seeded triploid banana (Musa acuminata Colla.) from North-East India revealed genomic variability
Studying genetic diversity in diploid and triploid Musa is important for using genetic resources in advance agriculture. Banana is one of the most...

Blind measurements did not confirm effects of forest fragmentation on fluctuating asymmetry of a tropical butterfly Morpho helenor
Re-evaluation of photographs of the tropical butterfly Morpho helenor from a previous study (Pignataro et al. 2023) revealed that its conclusion...

The CsPPR gene with RNA-editing function involved in leaf color asymmetry of the reciprocal hybrids derived from Cucumis sativus and C. hystrix
Main conclusionThe leaf color asymmetry found in the reciprocal hybrids C. hystrix × C. sativus (HC) and C. sativus × C. hystrix (CH) could be...

Three areas of cranial evolution in the white-bellied pangolin (Phataginus tricuspis): An initial report on asymmetry, ontogeny and modularity
Small African pangolins (genus Phataginus ) presently face a general decline in population due to reduced survivability resulting from captive...

Whisker spots on polar bears reveal increasing fluctuating asymmetry
Developmental instability resulting from environmental or genetic stress is often measured through fluctuating asymmetry, the minor, random...
