Movement adds bite to the evolutionary morphology of mammalian teeth
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Selection and constraints put limits on morphological evolution. Mammalian teeth are no exception, and the need for them to meet precisely exerts exacting constraints on a staggering array of developmental and functional factors that must be integrated to maintai...
