Jayne B, Lozada A, Lauder G
J Morphol
. 2018 Jun;
228(3):307-326.
PMID: 29852635
The median fins of fishes are key features of locomotor morphology which function as complex control surfaces during a variety of behaviors. However, very few studies have experimentally assessed median...

Newman S, Jayne B
J Exp Biol
. 2017 Dec;
221(Pt 4).
PMID: 29212845
A central issue for understanding locomotion of vertebrates is how muscle activity and movements of their segmented axial structures are coordinated, and snakes have a longitudinal uniformity of body segments...

Jorgensen R, Jayne B
J Exp Biol
. 2017 Aug;
220(Pt 19):3545-3555.
PMID: 28784683
The need for long-axis support is widespread among non-aquatic vertebrates and may be particularly acute for arboreal snakes when many vertebrae span sizable gaps between branches with diverse orientations. Hence,...

Jayne B, Bennett A
Evolution
. 2017 Jun;
44(5):1204-1229.
PMID: 28563892
Selection on locomotor performance was determined for a series of marked and recaptured individuals from a population of garter snakes (Thamnophis sirtalis fitchi) in Northern California. We measured snake length...

J Exp Biol
. 2015 Dec;
218(Pt 24):3978-86.
PMID: 26677261
Depending on animal size, shape, body plan and behaviour, variation in surface structure can affect the speed and ease of locomotion. The slope of branches and the roughness of bark...

Jayne B, Byrnes G
J Exp Zool A Ecol Genet Physiol
. 2015 Apr;
323(5):309-21.
PMID: 25845679
The surfaces in arboreal habitats have variable diameters, slopes, and branching structure that pose functional challenges for animal locomotion. Nevertheless, many lineages of snakes have independently evolved arboreality. We tested...

Byrnes G, Jayne B
Biol Lett
. 2014 Aug;
10(8).
PMID: 25142200
On the steep surfaces that are common in arboreal environments, many types of animals without claws or adhesive structures must use muscular force to generate sufficient normal force to prevent...

Horner A, Jayne B
PLoS One
. 2014 May;
9(5):e96516.
PMID: 24788982
The role of axial form and function during the vertebrate water to land transition is poorly understood, in part because patterns of axial movement lack morphological correlates. The few studies...

Jayne B, Baum J, Byrnes G
J Exp Biol
. 2013 May;
216(Pt 17):3321-31.
PMID: 23685971
Many animals move using lateral undulations, but snakes are noteworthy for using this type of locomotion in an unusual diversity of environments, including trees in which both the spacing and...

Hoefer K, Jayne B
J Exp Zool A Ecol Genet Physiol
. 2013 Jan;
319(3):124-37.
PMID: 23281077
Challenges for moving in arboreal environments include sizable gaps and variable three-dimensional locations between the discrete destinations created by branches. Different three-dimensional orientations of the body change the mechanical demands...
