Bishop P, Pierce S
Sci Adv
. 2024 Oct;
10(43):eadr2722.
PMID: 39454012
The evolutionary transition from early synapsids to therian mammals involved profound reorganization in locomotor anatomy and function, centered around a shift from "sprawled" to "erect" limb postures. When and how...

Nat Commun
. 2024 Aug;
15(1):7587.
PMID: 39217194
Cetacean reinvasion of the aquatic realm is an iconic ecological transition that led to drastic modifications of the mammalian body plan, especially in the axial skeleton. Relative to the vertebral...

Proc Biol Sci
. 2024 Jul;
291(2026):20240820.
PMID: 38981526
Unravelling the functional steps that underlie major transitions in the fossil record is a significant challenge for biologists owing to the difficulties of interpreting functional capabilities of extinct organisms. New...

BMC Zool
. 2024 Apr;
9(1):10.
PMID: 38685130
Background: Mammalian skeletons are largely formed before birth. Heterochronic changes in skeletal formation can be investigated by comparing the order of ossification for different elements of the skeleton. Due to...

. 2023 Aug;
25(1):103578.
PMID: 37609446
The sprawling-parasagittal postural shift was a major transition during synapsid evolution, underpinned by reorganization of the forelimb, and considered key to mammalian ecological diversity. Determining when and how this transition...

. 2023 Apr;
13(1):4459.
PMID: 37019927
Herbivory evolved independently in several tetrapod lineages during the Late Carboniferous and became more widespread throughout the Permian Period, eventually leading to the basic structure of modern terrestrial ecosystems. Here...

Commun Biol
. 2022 Nov;
5(1):1280.
PMID: 36443424
Patterns of growth throughout the lifetime of an animal reflect critical life history traits such as reproductive timing, physiology, and ecological interactions. The ancestral growth pattern for tetrapods has traditionally...
