Intraspecific scaling of the minimum metabolic cost of transport in leghorn chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus): links with limb kinematics, morphometrics and posture
The minimum metabolic cost of transport (CoT(min); J kg(−1) m(−1)) scales negatively with increasing body mass (∝M(b)(−1/3)) across species from a wide range of taxa associated with marked differences in body plan. At the intraspecific level, or between closely related species, however, CoT(min) doe...
