Assesment and interpretation of negative forelimb allometry in the evolution of non-avian Theropoda
Frontiers in Zoology, 2019 Background The origin of birds is marked by a significant decrease in body size along with an increase in relative forelimb size. However, before the evolution of flight, both traits may have already been related: It has been proposed that an ...

Length–mass allometries in amphibians
Integrative Zoology, 2018 AbstractBody mass is rarely recorded in amphibians, and other body measurements (e.g. snout to vent length, SVL) are generally collected instead. However, length measurements, when used as proxies of body mass in comparative analyses, are problematic if different taxa and morphotypes are included.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

Academia BiologyCommonly observed multiphasic ontogenetic scaling of the rate of metabolism with body mass deserves increased attention because metabolism fuels all biological processes, including growth and development.

A conceptual framework for mapping quantitative trait Loci regulating ontogenetic allometry.
PLoS ONE, 2007 Although ontogenetic changes in body shape and its associated allometry has been studied for over a century, essentially nothing is known about their underlying genetic and developmental mechanisms.

Variation in parrot jaw musculature
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

Hierarchicality of Trade Flow Networks Reveals Complexity of Products
, 2014 With globalization, countries are more connected than before by trading flows, which currently amount to at least 36 trillion dollars. Interestingly, approximately 30-60 percent of global exports consist of intermediate products.
