Postnatal ontogeny of the femur in fossorial and semiaquatic water voles in the 3D-shape space.

Anatomical record (Hoboken, N.J. : 2007) - 1 May 2022

Durão Ana Filipa, Muñoz-Muñoz Francesc, Ventura Jacint

Abstract excerpt

Water voles of the genus Arvicola constitute an excellent subject to investigate to which extent function affects postnatal developmental growth of limb structures in phylogenetically close species. We performed a comparative analysis of postweaning femur form changes between Arvicola sapidus (semiaquatic) and Arvicola scherman (fossorial) using three-dimensional landmark-based geometric morphometrics. In both...
