Discussion

  • version 20151106: V0 morphic feeding (ie contant feeding irrespective of size) is assumed for growth and survival data from WeinWalf1986
  • version 20180502: isomorphic feeding used for WeinWalf1986
  • version 20180502: t_0 is fixed and not estimated
  • version 20180502: addition of datasets: Ww-JO SelmLums2001, t-Ww by BakeLiu1991, Gate1925, IshiHata2005, HallFerg2002
  • version 20180502: the growth curve by IshiHata2005 weight zero, because of the strange morphology with respect to the other curves
  • version 20180502: the fit could be improved in some of the growth cuves by assuming higher f during the milking stage.
  • version 20180502: MacDAlle1927 state that males and females differ, but we did not find data to support this. Hence this entry assumes same parameters for males and females.

Facts

  • This entry is discussed in LeeuKelp2002 (Ref: LeeuKelp2002)
  • Time from conception to start of development (T_0) is taken to be 7.2 d (Ref: MacDAlle1927)
  • Male and female mice differ in development over the course of their lives. (Ref: MacDAlle1927)
  • Female mice can resorbe their fetuses, maybe even a third of them (Ref: Laur1946)
  • Equal weight at birth for males and females, some light differences in growth between males and females become apparent after birth. (Ref: Gate1925)
