Abstract:Tema diplomskega dela je bila morfometrična analiza dorzalne strani lobanje pri treh vrstah cokorjev, Myospalax: M. aspalax, M. myospalax in M. psilurus. Analiza je obsegala 246 lobanj treh vrst cokorjev, razdeljenih v sedem vzorcev (OTU-jev). Analizo smo izvedli s pomočjo metod geometrijske morfometrije, ki omogoča ločeno analizo variabilnosti v obliki in velikosti organizmov ali njihovih struktur, v našem primeru je bila to dorzalna stran lobanje. Variabilnost dorzalne strani lobanje smo analizirali glede na sekundarni spolni dimorfizem, geografski izvor in medvrstne razlike. Ugotovili smo, da sekundarni spolni dimorfizem v velikosti lobanje pri odraslih cokorjih ni statistično značilen. Sekundarni spolni dimorfizem v obliki lobanje med spoloma je zaznaven, vendar smo se kljub temu odločili spol obravnavati v enotni analizi. Analizo za starostno variabilnost smo izvedli samo za vrsto M. psilurus, ki izkazuje statistično značilno razlikovanje med starostnimi skupinami. Rezultate starostne variabilnosti smo posplošili na vse vzorce. Z diskriminantno analizo in analizo glavnih komponent smo preverjali variabilnost v obliki dorzalne strani lobanje. Potrdili smo hipotezo, da so med vrstami treh različnih cokorjev prisotne razlike v velikosti in obliki lobanje, prav tako so prisotne razlike znotraj različnih geografskih vzorcev. Najmanjšo lobanjo izkazuje vrsta M. aspalax, največjo pa vrsta M. myospalax.
Keywords:M. myospalax, M. aspalax, M. psilurus, geometrijska morfometrija, lobanja, sekundarni spolni dimorfizem, geografska variabilnost.

Title:Geometric morphometric of skull of the zokor, Myospalax (Rodentia: Mammalia)
Abstract:Theme of thesis was morphometric analysis of dorsal side of the skull in three species of zokors, Myospalax: M. myospalax, M. aspalax and M. psilurus. Analysis consisted of 246 skulls of three types zokors divided into seven samples (OTU). The analysis was performed by using the methods of geometric morphometry, which allows a separate analysis of the variability in shape and size of organisms and their structures, in our case it was the dorsal side of the skull. Variability of dorsal side of the skull was analyzed according to secondary sexual dimorphism, geographical origin and interspecies differences. We found that secondary sexual dimorphism in size of the skull in adults zokors is not statistically significant. Secondary sexual dimorphism in skull shape between the sexes is recognizable but we although decided to deal with sex in a single analysis. Analysis for age variability was performed only for the type M. psilurus, which shows a statistically significant distinction between age groups. The results of age variability, we generalize to all samples. With discriminant analysis and principal component analysis we verified the variability in the form of a dorsal side of the skull. We have confirmed the hypothesis that the three different types of zokors are present differences in size and shape of the skull, also are present differences within different geographic patterns. Minimum skull shows the species of M. aspalax and the highest shows the species of M. myospalax.
Keywords:Myospalax myospalax, Myospalax aspalax, Myospalax psilurus, geometric morphometry, skull, secondary sexual dimorphism, geographic variability.
