locomotor performance

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Progeny of Xenopus laevis from altitudinal extremes display adaptive physiological performance
    Carla Wagener, Natasha Kruger, John Measey
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2021 : jeb.233031 doi: 10.1242/jeb.233031 Published 2 March 2021
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Fluctuating environments during early development can limit adult phenotypic flexibility: insights from an amphibious fish
    Giulia S. Rossi, Paige V. Cochrane, Patricia A. Wright
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb228304 doi: 10.1242/jeb.228304 Published 26 August 2020

    Summary: Exposure to water–air fluctuating environments during early fish development alters constitutive adult phenotypes and diminishes the scope for reversible acclimation.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Rapid adaptive response to a Mediterranean environment reduces phenotypic mismatch in a recent amphibian invader
    Giovanni Vimercati, Sarah J. Davies, John Measey
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb174797 doi: 10.1242/jeb.174797 Published 11 May 2018

    Highlighted Article: The integration of field and laboratory experiments shows that a recent amphibian invader reduces phenotypic mismatch with the novel environment through physiological and behavioural responses across an unusually short time scale.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Speed-dependent modulation of wing muscle recruitment intensity and kinematics in two bat species
    Nicolai Konow, Jorn A. Cheney, Thomas J. Roberts, Jose Iriarte-Díaz, Kenneth S. Breuer, J. Rhea S. Waldman, Sharon M. Swartz
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 1820-1829; doi: 10.1242/jeb.144550

    Summary: One bat species alters flight muscle recruitment intensity with flight speed whereas another maintains constant muscle recruitment intensity but alters 3D wing kinematics, representing alternative strategies for flight at different speeds.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Energetic cost determines voluntary movement speed only in familiar environments
    Frank Seebacher, Jason Borg, Kathryn Schlotfeldt, Zhongning Yan
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1625-1631; doi: 10.1242/jeb.136689

    Highlighted Article: Metabolic investment into movement of animals changes with environmental novelty, thereby altering the metabolic dimension of ecological function.

  • SHORT COMMUNICATION
    Hindlimb muscle fibre size and glycogen stores in bank voles with increased aerobic exercise metabolism
    Ewa Jaromin, Julia Wyszkowska, Anna Maria Labecka, Edyta Teresa Sadowska, Paweł Koteja
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 470-473; doi: 10.1242/jeb.130476

    Summary: Bank voles selected for high swim-induced aerobic metabolism over 13 generations show increased hindlimb muscle mass, but the muscle fibre characteristics remain unaffected.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Skeletal muscle contractile function predicts activity and behaviour in zebrafish
    Frank Seebacher, Alexander G. Little, Rob S. James
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2015 218: 3878-3884; doi: 10.1242/jeb.129049

    Highlighted Article: Muscle contractile properties determine voluntary movement speed and activity of animals, and thereby influence risk-taking behaviour, providing a functional explanation for differences in behavioural phenotypes between individuals.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Developmental thermal plasticity of prey modifies the impact of predation
    Frank Seebacher, Veronica S. Grigaltchik
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2015 218: 1402-1409; doi: 10.1242/jeb.116558

    Summary: Thermal conditions experienced during early development affect survival from predation and phenotypic characteristics of prey later in life.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Repeatability of escape response performance in the queen scallop, Aequipecten opercularis
    Sven R. Laming, Stuart R. Jenkins, Ian D. McCarthy
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 3264-3272; doi: 10.1242/jeb.080416
