Studies of evolutionary temperature adaptation: Muscle function and locomotor performance in Antarctic fish
1. Studies of evolutionary temperature adaptation of muscle and locomotor performance in fish are reviewed with a focus on the Antarctic fauna living at subzero temperatures. 2. Only limited data are available to compare the sustained rind burst swimming kinematics and performance of Antarctic, temp...
