  • Title: [Approximations for growth in weight and length of the golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus Waterhouse) following data of Du Bois (1950)].
    Author: Sager G.
    Journal: Anat Anz; 1985; 158(2):181-91. PubMed ID: 3993975.
    Abstract:
    Weight and length of body as well as length of tail and right hind leg of 111 golden hamsters after Du Bois (1950) are submitted to approximations with several functions of organic growth. As already verified for rats and mice the generic growth function has priority in representing weight whilst length series of the golden hamster are expressed best by a formulation of Sager (1980a). Allometric relations are rather poor between weight and length and fail altogether between total and partial lengths. Special remarks are added concerning calculations of allometric parameters.
