Development and three-dimensional morphology of the zygomaticotemporal suture in primate skulls [PDF]
, 2014 Cranial sutures are an essential part of the growing skull, allowing bones to increase in size during growth, with their morphology widely believed to be dictated by the forces and displacements that they experience.

Craniosynostosis: current conceptions and misconceptions
AIMS Genetics, 2016 Cranial bones articulate in areas called sutures that must remain patent until skull growth is complete. Craniosynostosis is the condition that results from premature closure of one or more of the cranial vault sutures, generating facial deformities and ...

Age determination in European lynx Lynx l. lynx (L.) based on cranial development
Fauna Norvegica, 1983 European lynxes Lynx lynx lynx were tentatively age determined using the ossification of cranial sutures and development of cranial characteristics. Cranial development seems to be more related to body size than to age, and a wide range in body size in ...
