Interspecific comparison of allometry between body weight and chest girth in domestic bovids

Abstract The sizes of body parts often co-vary through exponential scaling, known as allometry. The evolution of allometry is central to the generation of morphological diversity. To make inferences regarding the evolved responses in allometry to natural and artificial selection, we compared allomet...
