SHAPE: a computer program package for quantitative evaluation of biological shapes based on elliptic Fourier descriptors.
Quantitative evaluation of the shapes of biological organs is often required in various research fields, such as agronomy, medicine, genetics, ecology, and taxonomy. Elliptic Fourier descriptors… Expand

Variation was of root shape in Japanese radish, due to genotypes, soil types and growth stages, were quantitatively evaluated by principal components scores based on elliptic Fourier descriptors.… Expand
Linkage map of restriction fragment length polymorphism loci in rice.
- A. Saito, M. Yano, +13 authors M. Sugiura
- Biology
- 1 December 1991
We have constructed a genetic map of the nuclear genome in rice (Oryza sativa L.), utilizing 322 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) DNA markers and nine morphologlcal and biochemical… Expand
The Evaluation of Genotype × Environment Interactions of Citrus Leaf Morphology Using Image Analysis and Elliptic Fourier Descriptors
- H. Iwata, H. Nesumi, S. Ninomiya, Yasushi Takano, Y. Ukai
- Biology
- 1 December 2002
Variations of leaf form, i.e., differences in shape and size, among citrus varieties and the genotype × environment (GE) interactions influencing the variations were examined. Leaf shape was… Expand
Quantitative trait loci for phyllochron and tillering in rice
- N. Miyamoto, Y. Goto, M. Matsui, Y. Ukai, M. Morita, K. Nemoto
- Biology, Medicine
- Theoretical and Applied Genetics
- 24 June 2004
Morphogenetic processes in sequentially growing leaves and tiller buds are highly synchronized in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Consequently, the appearance of successive leaves in the main tiller acts as… Expand
Method for mapping a partial lethal-factor locus on a molecular-marker linkage map of a backcross and doubled-haploid population
- R. Cheng, A. Kleinhofs, Y. Ukai
- Biology
- Theoretical and Applied Genetics
- 29 July 1998
Abstract Distorted segregation has been repeatedly observed in various plant species in molecular-marker linkage mapping where distant crosses were made. It may be caused by a partial lethal-factor… Expand
MAPL: A package of computer programs for construction of DNA polymorphismlinkage maps and analysis of QTL
- Y. Ukai, R. Ohsawa, A. Saito, T. Hayashi
- Biology
- 1 March 1995
We have recently developed a package of programs named MAPL which can be used for construction of DNA polymorphism linkage maps from segregatrion data in F2, backcross, and dihaploid derived from a… Expand
Optimal Spatial and Temporal Measurement Repetition for Selection in Japanese Persimmon Breeding
- M. Yamada, H. Yamane, K. Yoshinaga, Y. Ukai
- Biology
- 1 August 1993
Genetic and environmental variances for fruit ripening time (FRT), fruit weight, and soluble solids concentration (SSC) in Japanese persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) were estimated. The variance… Expand
Comparison of QTLs for Early Elongation Ability between Two Floating Rice Cultivars with a Different Phylogenetic Origin
- Ding-Qin Tang, Y. Kasai, N. Miyamoto, Y. Ukai, K. Nemoto
- Biology
- 1 March 2005
The ability to initiate stem elongation at the early growth stages of a plant is the major survival mechanism of floating rice in the presence of flooding. We previously identified two quantitative… Expand
Estimation of the position and effect of a lethal factor locus on a molecular marker linkage map
- R. Cheng, A. Saito, Y. Takano, Y. Ukai
- Biology, Medicine
- Theoretical and Applied Genetics
- 1 September 1996
In the mapping of DNA markers the distortion of segregation of marker genotypes is often observed, which may be caused by a lethal factor acting in filial generations derived from distant crosses. A… Expand
