MITOCHONDRIAL OXIDATIVE CAPACITIES: Does functional capacity match maximum physiological demand? [PDF]

, 2014
The oxygen-dependent processes of ATP synthesis in mitochondria is same in all mammals and birds (endothermic animals). However, some endothermic species have higher maximum O2 consumption rate per unit mass (VO2 max/Mb) than others during aerobic ...

Redes de interacción colibrí-planta del centro-este de México Hummingbird-plant mutualistic networks in central-eastern Mexico

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2012
Las interacciones mutualistas han moldeado la biodiversidad en la tierra. A pesar de ello, hasta recientemente era difícil encontrar patrones en la estructura de este tipo de interacciones en las comunidades. En años recientes se ha promovido el análisis

Cell size and basal metabolic rate in hummingbirds Tamaño celular y tasa metabólica basal en picaflores

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2005
Nucleotypic theory suggests that genome size play indirect roles in determining organismal fitness. Among endotherms this theory has been demonstrated by an inverse correlation between basal metabolic rate (BMR) and genome size. Nonetheless, accumulation
