Scaling of Primate Forearm Muscle Architecture as It Relates to Locomotion and Posture
The Anatomical Record, 301(3), 484–495.
MeSH headings : Animals; Forearm / anatomy & histology; Forearm / physiology; Locomotion / physiology; Muscle, Skeletal / anatomy & histology; Muscle, Skeletal / physiology; Posture / physiology; Primates / anatomy & histology; Primates / classification; Primates / physiology
TL;DR:
It is found that arboreal primates have significantly greater FL than terrestrial ones, suggesting that these species are adapted for greater speed and/or flexibility in the trees.

Leg Muscle Architecture in Primates and Its Correlation with Locomotion Patterns
ANATOMICAL RECORD-ADVANCES IN INTEGRATIVE ANATOMY AND EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY, 301(3), 515–527.
author keywords: arboreal; terrestrial; phylogeny; PCSA; tendon
MeSH headings : Animals; Female; Leg / anatomy & histology; Locomotion / physiology; Muscle, Skeletal / anatomy & histology; Phylogeny; Primates / anatomy & histology; Primates / classification; Primates / physiology; Tendons / anatomy & histology
TL;DR:
Surprisingly, no significant results reflect a correlation between muscle architecture and substrate and locomotor groups, however, several trends suggest that a larger sample and more fine‐grained defined categories could produce significant results.

Functional Morphology and Behavioral Correlates to Postcranial Musculature
ANATOMICAL RECORD-ADVANCES IN INTEGRATIVE ANATOMY AND EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY, 301(3), 419–423.
author keywords: forearm muscles; hindlimb muscles; muscle fiber architecture; arboreal; terrestrial
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological; Animals; Behavior, Animal / physiology; Biological Evolution; Fossils; Locomotion; Muscles / anatomy & histology; Muscles / physiology; Skull / anatomy & histology; Skull / physiology
TL;DR:
Ten papers that focus on postcranial muscle morphology and function from different perspectives, including papers on forelimb and hindlimb muscle functional morphology of vertebrates involved in different substrate use and locomotion behavior and a historical overview to help bookend the contextualization of the issues.

Contaminants in tropical island streams and their biota
ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH, 161, 615–623.
author keywords: Fish; Pollution; Puerto Rico; River
MeSH headings : Animals; Biota; Environmental Monitoring; Humans; Islands; Pesticides / analysis; Polychlorinated Biphenyls / analysis; Puerto Rico; Rivers; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis
TL;DR:
The Bigmouth Sleeper Gobiomorous dormitor, an important piscivorus sport fish, accumulated low levels of organic contaminants in edible muscle tissue and may be most suitable for human consumption island‐wide; only mercury at one site (an urban location) exceeded EPA's consumption limit of 3 meals/month for this species.

TL;DR:
This gene, maternally expressed gene 3 (Meg3), has been associated with EDCs and neurobehavioral phenotypes and may be a biomarker indicative of early life environmental perturbation.

Female Mimicry by Sneaker Males Has a Transcriptomic Signature in Both the Brain and the Gonad in a Sex-Changing Fish
MOLECULAR BIOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, 35(1), 225–241.
author keywords: developmental plasticity; alternative male reproductive strategies; transcriptomics; phenotypic plasticity
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological / genetics; Animals; Biological Mimicry / genetics; Brain / metabolism; Female; Gene Expression Profiling / methods; Gene Expression Regulation / genetics; Gonads / metabolism; Male; Oxytocin / analogs & derivatives; Perciformes / genetics; Phenotype; Reproduction / physiology; Sex Characteristics; Sexual Behavior, Animal / physiology; Transcriptome / genetics
TL;DR:
It is proposed that morphological female-mimicry by sneaker male teleosts entails pervasive downregulation of androgenesis genes, consistent with low androgen production in males lacking well-developed secondary sexual characters.
