Paleohistological estimation of bone growth rate in extinct archosaurs (2012, background): “…(Erickson 2005; Bybee et al. 2006), age at sexual maturity (Lee and Werning 2008), bone growth rates (Curry 1999; Horner et al. 1999, 2000, 2001; Sander 2000; Padian et al. 2001, 2004; Ricqlès et al. 2003, 2008; Cooper et al. 2008), and metabolic rates (Ricqlès 1978; Padian and Horner 2002),…”
Dinosaurs and the island rule: The dwarfed dinosaurs from Haţeg Island (2010, background): “, 2001) to 26 (Sander, 2000) years, and the lower estimate would imply maximum growth rates of more than 5 tonnes per year during the juvenile growth spurt.”
BONE HISTOLOGY AND GROWTH PATTERNS OF SOME NONMAMMALIAN THERAPSIDS (2004, background): “The transition may instead indicate the onset of sexual maturity (Castanet and Baez, 1991; Reid, 1996; Sander, 2000).”
The Osteology of Chubutisaurus insignis Del Corro, 1975 (Dinosauria: Neosauropoda) from the ‘Middle’ Cretaceous of Central Patagonia, Argentina (2011, background): “…been identified in several sauropod taxa, including Apatosaurus (Curry Rogers, 1999), Janenschia robusta, Dicraeosaurus sp., Brachiosaurus brancai (Sander, 2000), Europasaurus holgeri (Sander et al., 2006), and Alamosaurus sanjuanensis (Woodward and Lehman, 2009), revealing that the determinate…”
Carapace bone histology in the giant pleurodiran turtle Stupendemys geographicus: Phylogeny and function (2007, methodology): “A dia− mond−studded core bit (14 mm in diameter) mounted on a slow−moving power−drill supported by a drill press was used to extract the keratinous shield and the underlying bone from the alcohol preserved turtle specimen (see also Sander 2000).”
LYSTROSAURUS MURRAYI (THERAPSIDA, DICYNODONTIA): BONE HISTOLOGY, GROWTH AND LIFESTYLE ADAPTATIONS (2005, background): “For determining growth strategy, emphasis was placed on the study of the mid-diaphyseal regions of the long bones as these were least remodelled and resulted in the better preservation of the primary bone tissue (Enlow 1963; Chinsamy and Dodson 1995; Sander 2000).”
Vertebral pneumaticity, air sacs, and the physiology of sauropod dinosaurs (2003, background): “Studies of the bone histology of sauropods indicate that they reached sexual maturity in 8–12 years and attained full adult size in about two decades (Rimblot-Baly et al. 1995; Curry 1999; Sander 2000).”
Ontogenetic stages in the long bone histology of sauropod dinosaurs (2008, result): “This is in contrast to what was observed in the basal sauropodomorph Plateosaurus, which shows developmental plasticity in its bone histology (Sander and Klein 2005; Klein and Sander 2007) as indicated by the lack of correlation between individual age and body size.”
Bone microstructure and growth patterns of early mammals (2006, background): “Although bone microstructure has been studied to assess growth patterns in a diverse range of extinct vertebrates (e.g., Chinsamy 1997, 2002; Ricqlès et al. 2000; Sander 2000; Erickson et al. 2004; Ray and Chinsamy 2004), the microscopic structure of Mesozoic mammals has remained undocumented.”
Modeling growth rates for sauropod dinosaurs (2008, background): “Sauropod limb elements do not exhibit strong allometries (Sander 2000; see also Ogier cited in Ricqlès 1983).”
