Partitioning the relative fitness effects of diet and trophic morphology in the threespine stickleback
(2011-07-01)
Background: Numerous models show that if morphology and diet are correlated, frequencydependent competition will lead to fitness differences among phenotypically dissimilar individuals within a species. Hypothesis: Selection ...
Locomotion in rodents and small carnivorans: Are they so different?
(Springer, 2020-08-04)
Rodents and carnivorans constitute two diverse clades with variable life habits. To analyze the common ecomorphological aspects of their limbs in relation to their different substrate uses, the shape of humerus and femur ...
Evolution of form and function: morphophysiological relationships and locomotor performance in tropidurine lizards
(WILEY-BLACKWELLHOBOKEN, 2012)
Locomotor capacity is often considered an excellent measure of whole animal performance because it requires the integrated functioning of many morphological, physiological (and biochemical) traits. However, because studies ...
Style morphological diversity of some Asteraceae species from Argentina: systematic and functional implications
(Springer Tokyo, 2007-12)
Asteraceae species from Argentina was analysed considering species phylogenetic membership and some floral reproductive functions (pollen presentation and pollen reception). In particular, the morphology and organisation ...
Going underwater: Multiple origins and functional morphology of piercing-sucking feeding and tracheal system adaptations in water scavenger beetle larvae (Coleoptera: Hydrophiloidea)
(Oxford University Press, 2021-09)
Larvae of water scavenger beetles (Coleoptera: Hydrophiloidea) are adapted to a wide variety of aquatic habitats, butlittle is known about functional and evolutionary aspects of these adaptations. We review the functional ...
The relationship between skull morphology, masticatory muscle force and cranial skeletal deformation during biting
(Elsevier, 2016)
The human skull is gracile when compared to many Middle Pleistocene hominins. It has been argued that it is less able to generate and withstand high masticatory forces, and that the morphology of the lower portion of the ...

Morphological and functional aspects of anthers from species of Solanum,Sect. Cyphomandropsis
(International Society of Plant Morphology, 2006-01)
The study of anther development of Solanum sect. Cyphomandropsis species (Solanum confusum Morton, Solanum glaucophyllum Desf. and Solanum stuckertii Bitter) provide information about differences between the anther wall ...
