A highly conserved ontogenetic limb allometry and its evolutionary significance in the adaptive radiation of anolis lizards

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Anolis lizards and colleagues from the Department of Biology, Lund University, Sweden have published the article: A highly conserved ontogenetic limb allometry and its evolutionary significance in the adaptive radiation of Anolis lizards, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 14/Nov/2022
  • what: The authors show that differential growth cannot account for species differences in the relative proportion of limb bones.
  • future: Interestingly the mechanisms of bone element morphogenesis differ between long bones metapodials and phalangeal elements which suggests that changes in limb length and proportions can result from a variety of different . . .
