Dental ontogeny in pliocene and early pleistocene hominins.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Until recently, our understanding of the evolution of human growth and development derived from studies of fossil juveniles that employed extant populations for both age determination and comparison.

The Early Ontogeny of Reason Giving [PDF]
Child Development Perspectives, 2020 Abstract The key context within which preschool children learn to justify beliefs with reasons is collaborative problem-solving and decision-making with peers, including in the moral domain, in which they engage with another coequal mind in a cooperative spirit.

The ontogeny of early language discrimination: Beyond rhythm
Cognition, 2021 Infants can discriminate languages that belong to different rhythmic classes at birth. The ability to perform within-class discrimination emerges around the fifth month of life. The cues that infants use to discriminate between prosodically close languages remain elusive.

The ontogeny of memory persistence and specificity
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2019 Interest in the ontogeny of memory blossomed in the twentieth century following the initial observations that memories from infancy and early childhood are rapidly forgotten.

Involvement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and its interaction with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in the ontogeny of avian thermoregulation: a review [PDF]
, 2008 The emergence of thermoregulation in avian species is a complex matter in which neural as well as hormonal processes are involved. In a previous paper, the neural aspects of primary avian thermoregulation were discussed.

The Early Ontogeny of Social Norms
Child Development Perspectives, 2013 Abstract Recent research has produced new insights into the early development of social cognition and social learning. Even very young children learn and understand social activities as governed by conventional norms that (a) are arbitrary and shared by the community, (b) have normative force and apply to all participants, and (c) are

Microorganisms, 2021 In supportive breeding programs for wild salmon populations, stocked parr experience higher mortality rates than wild ones. Among other aspects of phenotype, the gut microbiota of artificially raised parr differs from that of wild parr before stocking ...

Expression and localization of Aquaporin 1a in the sea-bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) during ontogeny [PDF]
, 2011 The successful establishment of a species in a given habitat depends on the ability of each of its developing stages to adapt to the environment. In order to understand this process we have studied the adaptation of a euryhaline fish, the sea-bass ...

Compensatory development and costs of plasticity: larval responses to desiccated conspecifics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Understanding constraints on phenotypic plasticity is central to explaining its evolution and the evolution of phenotypes in general, yet there is an ongoing debate on the classification and relationships among types of constraints.
