Topic: Peduncle


  
  IX. Neurology. 4a. The Hind-brain or Rhombencephalon. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body.
The upper part of the posterior district of the medulla oblongata is occupied by the inferior peduncle, a thick rope-like strand situated between the lower part of the fourth ventricle and the roots of the glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves.
Caudal to the striæ medullares the inferior peduncle is partly covered by the corpus pontobulbare (Essick 120), a thin mass of cells and fibers extending from the pons between the origin of the VII and VIII cranial nerves.
The cerebellum is connected to the cerebrum, pons, and medulla oblongata; to the cerebrum by the superior peduncle, to the pons by the middle peduncle, and to the medulla oblongata by the inferior peduncles.

 Cerebellum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thus, the superior cerebellar peduncle is the major output pathway of the cerebellum.
This peduncle also carries information directly from the Purkinje cells to the vestibular nuclei in the dorsal brainstem located at the junction between the pons and medulla.
In the cerebellum, the PICA supplies blood to the posterior inferior portion of the cerebellum, the inferior cerebellar peduncle, the nucleus ambiguus, the vagus motor nucleus, the spinal trigeminal nucleus, the solitary nucleus, and the vestibulocochlear nuclei.

Peduncle Rot of Dwarf Wheat caused by Rhizoctonia cerealis
To satisfy Koch’s postulate, samples of leaf sheath and peduncle tissue from the two dwarf winter wheat cultivars, obtained from the field, were sectioned into 2-cm portions and surface sterilised and then plated onto both tap water agar and potato dextrose agar (Oxoid).
Confinement of white heads to infected plants with lesions on peduncle tissue suggests that damage to this tissue is likely to have a greater affect on plant health and grain formation than on plants where lesions are confined to the base of stems.

 Titan Arum: June 2005 Blooming
Big Bucky's peduncle (flower stem) continues to grow, and the spathe is developing more of the deep maroon color, which can now be seen between its ribs as well as on its margin.
Today's measurement of 95 inches was taken from the point where the peduncle meets the huge tuber from which the plant emerges.
The role of the peduncle is to keep maturing fruits out of reach of small animals such as rodents.

 CORRECTION
Among the various organs/tissues such as gonad, embryo, skin, scale, fin, gill, caudal peduncle, heart, liver, kidney and swim bladder that were screened, heart and caudal peduncle were found to be suitable in terms of attachment, growth and ability to undergo subcultivation.
Heart and caudal peduncle were found to be better in terms of attachment, growth and ability to undergo subcultivation with low level contamination.
Among the tissues evaluated, cells from the caudal peduncle of mrigal could be passaged 13 times while those from the heart of mrigal and catla could be passaged 10 times, indicating the potential of these two tissues to form cell lines.

 hoya compacta peduncle info? - Hoya Forum - GardenWeb
I have a hanging basket with about 15 plants in it and there are 2 plants that have the red knobby looking growths starting at the tips, and another reddish growth starting up high at the base of a pair of leaves.
Peduncles usually form between a pair of leaves, but some Hoyas produce long, at first leafless runners that will get peduncles on them.
First, this is one of the newly formed peduncles on my pubicalyx, which has yet to form a flower...

 Neuroanatomy
Also you should be able to identify the inferior cerebellar peduncle, inferior olivary nucleus, medial lemniscus, medial longitudinal fasciculus, the pyramids, and the nucleus and tractus solitarius.
Subsequently, the auditory signal is sent via the peduncle of the inferior colliculus to the medial geniculate nucleus of the dorsal thalamus.
The crescent-shaped bands of fibers that lie between the cerebral peduncles and the decussation of the superior cerebellar peduncles contain fibers of the medial lemnisci, the spinothalamic tracts, and the lateral lemnisci.

This peduncle is formed by axons that arise from certain deep cerebellar nuclei.
2) The superior cerebellar peduncle is the principal efferent bundle of the cerebellum, unlike the other two peduncles (inferior or restiform body; middle or brachium pontis) that are conveying information to the cerebellum.
4) The fibers cross (in the caudal midbrain) at the decussation of the superior cerebellar peduncle (brachium conjunctivum).

 Corydoras habrosus
Sometimes you can get species that have these markings merging into one band running the full length of the body from the start of the dorsal fin to the caudal peduncle, or even 2 bands (see photo), but the spot/blotch on the peduncle is always larger than the rest of these markings.
In place of the large blotch in the caudal peduncle of C.habrosus, C.cochui has 2 smaller spots situated between the adipose fin and the caudal peduncle (where the tail meets the body).
Three dark blotches along middle of body, the first below the dorsal fin, the second between the dorsal and adipose fins and the third and darkest is on the caudal peduncle.

If this is truely an infarct, I cannot tell without reviewing the films, then you should be evaluated to determine why this occurred, and to determine your future risk of other strokes.

 4. Peduncle and Pedicel
the peduncle is soletary, proceeds from the root, is columner, smooth, leafless, and rises to the height of 2 or 2-1/2 feet.
"[The pedicel] supports from 10 to forty flowers, which are each supported by a separate footstalk of 1/2 an inch in length, scattered without order on the upper portion of the peduncle."
Unlike many modern botanists, Lewis clearly understood the difference between a peduncle (the stalk that holds the inflorescence and arises from the bulb) and a pedicel (the stalk that holds an individual flower).
