The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Domestic rabbits of different body sizes differ disproportionately in the length of their tooth row or the length of their diastema. Abstract In various domestic mammals, smaller breeds tend to have proportionally larger teeth, whereas this is not a universal trend across mammals.

Height-diameter allometry of tropical forest trees [PDF]
, 2011 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.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Analysis of the variation in the bony structures of the inner and middle ear provides critical insights into functional morphology, as well as adaptive morphology across primates. In this study, we investigated whether ear morphology patterns are related to the ecological characteristics of species and their habitats to test two acoustic ...

Developmental allometry and paediatric malaria [PDF]
Malaria Journal, 2012 تقدر منظمة الصحة العالمية أن 80 ٪ من الوفيات الناجمة عن الملاريا تحدث بين الرضع والأطفال الصغار. على الرغم من أنه ثبت منذ فترة طويلة أن الملاريا تؤثر بشكل غير متناسب على الأطفال دون سن الخامسة، إلا أن فهمنا للآليات البيولوجية الأساسية لهذا التوزيع لا يزال غير مكتمل.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Walruses have been an important subsistence and cultural resource for humans and have been exploited for millennia across their distribution. This exploitation has contributed to severe declines in several populations and local extirpations.

Developing nondestructive species‐specific tree allometry with terrestrial laser scanning
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Allometric equations predict organism attributes from simple measurements and underlie many global‐scale estimates, from plant productivity to ecosystem carbon stocks. In forests, destructive harvesting of trees in common groups (e.g.

Length-weight relationships of marine fishes from the central Brazilian coast [PDF]
, 2004 Parameters of the length-weight relationship are presented for 85 fish species from the marine and estuarine regions of the central Brazilian coast (latitude 13° to 23° S). Three different methods were used. A non-linear iterative process using the quasi-

The Allometry of Prey Preferences
PLoS ONE, 2011 The distribution of weak and strong non-linear feeding interactions (i.e., functional responses) across the links of complex food webs is critically important for their stability. While empirical advances have unravelled constraints on single-prey functional responses, their validity in the context of complex food webs where most predators have ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Scientists have been captivated by the ability to regenerate, focusing on uncovering the mechanisms of epimorphic regeneration and applying them to human medicine. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has become the most intensively studied model in tetrapod regeneration research, particularly concerning limb regeneration.

An allometry perspective on crops [PDF]
New PhytologistSummaryUnderstanding trait–trait coordination is essential for successful plant breeding and crop modeling. Notably, plant size drives variation in morphological, physiological, and performance‐related traits, as described by allometric laws in ecology.
