• The Femoral Ontogeny and Long Bone Histology of the Middle Triassic (?Late Anisian) Dinosauriform Asilisaurus kongwe and Implications for the Growth of Early Dinosaurs (2016, background): “The vascular size and level of vascularization in A. kongwe are much less than in extant birds (Castanet et al., 1996; Horner et al., 2001; Padian et al., 2001; Starck and Chinsamy, 2002), which commonly attain adult body size in under a year (Padian et al., 2004; Stark and Chinsamy, 2004).”
• AXIAL SKELETON ONTOGENY IN THE PARASUCHIA (ARCHOSAURIA: PSEUDOSUCHIA) AND ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR ONTOGENETIC DETERMINATION IN ARCHOSAURS (2007, background): “Even within dinosaurs, there are distinct ontogenetic differences among birds (Starck, 1993), between birds and nonavian dinosaurs (Padian et al., 2001), and among small and large taxa of related groups (Padian et al., 2004; Erickson et al., 2004).”
• On the origin of high growth rates in archosaurs and their ancient relatives: Complementary histological studies on Triassic archosauriforms and the problem of a “phylogenetic signal” in bone histology (2008, background): “These inferences, of course, must take into account the body size of the taxon (Padian et al., 2004), because relatively smaller species grow at lower rates than larger species do (Case, 1978).”
• Osteohistological Evidence for Determinate Growth in the American Alligator (2011, unknown): “This structure has been positively identified in mammals (e.g., Cormack, 1987), birds (e.g., Ponton et al., 2004) and non-avian dinosaurs (e.g., Erickson et al., 2004; Horner and Padian, 2004; Padian et al., 2004) and has been noted in some reptiles (e.g., Castanet et al., 1988; Buffrénil and…”
• Paleohistological estimation of bone growth rate in extinct archosaurs (2012, methodology): “Of these, 12 species (three mammals, three testudines, four lizards, one crocodile, and one bird) were used in two previous studies (Montes et al. 2007; Cubo et al. 2008).”
• The anatomy of the basal ornithischian dinosaur Eocursor parvus from the lower Elliot Formation (Late Triassic) of South Africa (2010, background): “Padian et al. (2004) discussed the bone histology of two specimens of the basal thyreophoran, Scutellosaurus.”
