Influences of Domestication and Island Evolution on Dental Growth in Sheep [PDF]
Journal of Mammalian Evolution, 2018 Abstract: Domestication and island evolution can lead to changes of life history along the slow-fast gradient. Shifts of life history patterns, in turn, are potentially related to alterations of patterns and timing of tooth eruption. Schultz’s rule predicts an earlier eruption of molars relative to premolars as fecundity increases during the ...
