Mammalian Endothermy Optimally Restricts Fungi and Metabolic Costs
ABSTRACT Endothermy and homeothermy are mammalian characteristics whose evolutionary origins are poorly understood. Given that fungal species rapidly lose their capacity for growth above ambient temperatures, we have proposed that mammalian endothermy enhances fitness by creating exclusionary therma...
