Understanding variation in metabolic rate.

The Journal of experimental biology - 11 Jan 2018

Pettersen Amanda K, Marshall Dustin J, White Craig R

Abstract excerpt

Metabolic rate reflects an organism's capacity for growth, maintenance and reproduction, and is likely to be a target of selection. Physiologists have long sought to understand the causes and consequences of within-individual to among-species variation in metabolic rates - how metabolic rates relate to performance and how they should evolve. Traditionally, this has been viewed from a mechanistic perspective,...
