Studie I: Ontogenetic allometry of the Beagle
2.16. Tables
Tab. 1: Individual parameters of body proportions for all siblings studied. Allometric
coefficient (slope), intercept, standard deviation of the slope (SD slope),
correlation coefficient (R) and the upper and the lower limit of the 95% confidence
interval (95% UL, 95% LL) of all body proportions plotted against body mass on loglog
scales (base 10). Isometry (iso) was given if the slope b=0.333 was within the
confidence interval; otherwise, it was negative (-) or positive (+) allometry. For
comparison, the growth sequence based on the slopes and the respective CIs is
indicated for each dog in the last line. Abbreviations: hd-head length, wi-withers
height, ph-pelvic height, trl-trunk length, trc-trunk circumference.
