Overall, our work contributes to the growing understanding of mammalian body shape evolution and how it is influenced by body size and locomotor ecology, in this case from robust subterranean to gracile gliding squirrels. 6/x

Lastly, we found that the relative length of the ribs and elongation or shortening of the thoracic region contributes the most to body shape evolution across squirrels. 5/x

Next, we found that only ground squirrels exhibit a relationship between forelimb length and body shape, where more elongate species exhibit relatively shorter forelimbs. In contrast, there was no relationship between relative hindlimb length and body shape. 4/x

The scaling patterns of the morphological components underlying body shape also differed among ecotypes. 3/x

We found that body shape scale with body size, but these allometric patterns differ among squirrel ecotypes: chipmunks & gliding squirrels exhibited more elongate bodies with increasing body sizes whereas ground squirrels exhibited more robust bodies with increasing body size 2/x

The first #TeamSquirrel paper is published! Led by Tate Linden, we tested scaling patterns of body shape, body size, & limb lengths among squirrel ecotypes and described the underlying morphological components that contribute to body shape evolution 🧵1/x peerj.com/articles/14800/

All undergrads are accounted for! Be sure to stop by the poster session later today to learn about squirrel limbs and carnivoran sexual dimorphism! #SICB2023 @SICB_DCB_DVM

I definitely recommend checking SegmentGeometry out! #TeamSquirrel members @JohannahRickman and @AbbyEBurtner have been getting great data from it!
Dr. Jonathan Huie@jmhuiee

New #OA paper and software in @iobopen!!! Introducing SegmentGeometry - a new module for measuring 2nd moment of area in @3DSlicerApp. In the paper we give a beam theory primer and analyze 2 case studies with 2nd moment. Watch this thread for deets! doi.org/10.1093/iob/ob… 1/9
