Growth trajectories in the cave bear and its extant relatives: an examination of ontogenetic patterns in phylogeny

BACKGROUND: The study of postnatal ontogeny can provide insights into evolution by offering an understanding of how growth trajectories have evolved resulting in adult morphological disparity. The Ursus lineage is a good subject for studying cranial and mandibular shape and size variation in relatio...
