Scope and Contents

Contents

A microscopy study of the cellular basis of mammalian skeletal elongation in development and evolution reveals three phases of chondrocyte volume enlargement, including a phase of disproportionate fluid increase.
Third-phase growth determines bone length
There is wide variation in bone lengths in mammals, both between species and within an in...
