A Fractional Probability Calculus View of Allometry

Systems, 2014
The scaling of respiratory metabolism with body size in animals is considered by many to be a fundamental law of nature. An apparent corollary of this law is the scaling of physiologic time with body size, implying that physiologic time is separate and ...

On weapons allometry and the form of sexual selection. [PDF]

R Soc Open Sci
The study of trait scaling with body size (allometry) has a long history, and it has been argued that positive static allometry is an indicator of directional sexual selection.

The worldwide allometric relationship in anatomical structures for plant roots

Plant Diversity, 2023
The cortex (i.e., absorptive tissue) and stele (transportive vascular tissue) are fundamental to the function of plant roots. Unraveling how these anatomical structures are assembled in absorptive roots is essential for our understanding of plant ecology,

Assessment of a Takagi–Sugeno-Kang fuzzy model assembly for examination of polyphasic loglinear allometry [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Background The traditional allometric analysis relies on log- transformation to contemplate linear regression in geometrical space then retransforming to get Huxley’s model of simple allometry.

Monthly variations in growth pattern and condition factor of Periophthalmodon septemradiatus (Gobiiformes: Periophthalminae) living along the Bassac River in Viet Nam [PDF]

PeerJ, 2022
Periophthalmodon septemradiatus (Hamilton, 1822) is a unique mudskipper living in the mudbanks from estuarine to riverine regions in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD), but there is no data on its growth patterns and condition factors that are helpful for

Effects of Competition on The Crown Width Allometry for Dominant Trees on Good Sites of Vegetative Clonal Teak (Tectona grandis Linn. f.) in Java, Indonesia

Jurnal Manajemen Hutan Tropika, 2019
The vegetative clonal teak is fast-growing, exhibits relatively uniform growth, and is sensitive to crown competition. The crown width dimension correlates positively with the size of the diameter (CW allometry).

Variation in the ontogenetic allometry of horn length in bovids along a body mass continuum

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Allometric relationships describe the proportional covariation between morphological, physiological, or life‐history traits and the size of the organisms. Evolutionary allometries estimated among species are expected to result from species differences in

Allometry correction in semi-quantitative analysis of dopamine transporter SPECT. [PDF]

EJNMMI Res
Background Striatal specific binding ratios (SBR) are widely used to support the interpretation of dopamine transporter SPECT scans. Automatic SBR computation often involves using affine transformations to map the individual SPECT images to an anatomical

BIVARIATE AND MULTIVARIATE SIZE ALLOMETRY OF THE NILE FISH, (Chrysichthys auratus (Ceoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1809) FROM THE NILE AT EGYPT [PDF]

Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 1991
The bivariate size allometry of Chrysichthys auratus was estimated by the application of the power function equation of HUXLEY (1932) on certain - morphometric characters in terms of its parameters.

Height-diameter allometry of tropical forest trees [PDF]

, 2010
Tropical tree height-diameter (H:D) relationships may vary by forest type and region making large-scale estimates of above-ground biomass subject to bias if they ignore these differences in stem allometry.
