Ecological implications of allometric relationships in American alligators (Alligator mississippiensis)

Abstract Morphometric allometry, the effect of size on morphological variation, has been of great interest for evolutionary biologist and is currently used in fields such as wildlife ecology to inform management and conservation. We assessed American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) morphologi...
