    Notes: Abstract It is difficult to permanently alter the shape of cartilage in a controlled way. In otolaryngology and plastic surgery several procedures are done to alter the shape of cartilage, for example the correction of a deviated nasal septum and surgery for bat ears. The aim of this paper is to study the main parameters which are necessary for the phenomenon of reshaping of cartilage under non-destructive laser radiation. We have measured temperature and stress in cartilage when it is being reshaped with a holmium laser, It has been shown that laser-induced stress relaxation in cartilage takes place when the tissue temperature exceeds 70°C. We have determined the conditions which allow the shape of cartilage to be altered without producing any pronounced alteration to matrix structure or chondrocytes.

    Notes: Summary Two numerical taxonomic techniques, single linkage cluster analysis (SLCA) and principal components analysis (PCA) were used to study the relationship between Dioscorea cayenensis and D. rotundata cultivars. The study was prompted by the confusion in the taxonomy of the two taxa. Twenty-two cultivars (14 of D. rotundata and 8 of D. cayenensis) were collected and planted under the same environmental conditions for 3 successive years. Altogether, 76 characters, which include morphological, anatomical and ecological characters were observed and coded for analyses. Results from both methods agreed and showed that two groups of taxa exist. The discrimination between groups and description of differences between groups were more strongly marked from the PCA than in the SLCA.
