How does evolutionary variation in Basal metabolic rates arise? A statistical assessment and a mechanistic model.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 May 2013

Naya Daniel E, Spangenberg Lucía, Naya Hugo, Bozinovic Francisco

Abstract excerpt

Metabolic rates are related to the pace of life. Hence, research into their variability at global scales is of vital importance for several contemporary theories in physiology, ecology, and evolution. Here we evaluated the effect of latitude, climate, primary productivity, habitat aridity, and species trophic habits, on mass-independent basal metabolic rates (BMRs) for 195 rodent species. The aims of this article...
