Size, shape, and form: concepts of allometry in geometric morphometrics
CP Klingenberg - Development genes and evolution, 2016 - Springer
Allometry refers to the size-related changes of morphological traits and remains an essential
concept for the study of evolution and development. This review is the first systematic …

Integration and the developmental genetics of allometry
Allometry refers to the ways in which organismal shape is associated with size. It is a special
case of integration, or the tendency for traits to covary, in that variation in size is ubiquitous …

Early presence of Homo sapiens in Southeast Asia by 86–68 kyr at Tam Pà Ling, Northern Laos
The timing of the first arrival of Homo sapiens in East Asia from Africa and the degree to
which they interbred with or replaced local archaic populations is controversial. Previous …

A potential pitfall in studies of biological shape: does size matter?
The number of published studies using geometric morphometrics (GM) for analysing
biological shape has increased steadily since the beginning of the 1990s, covering multiple …

The predictable complexity of evolutionary allometry
ML Zelditch, DL Swiderski - Evolutionary Biology, 2023 - Springer
