Phylogenetics to help predict active metabolism

This paper shows how to build predictive models involving phylogenetic information to estimate metabolic traits such as active metabolic costs. Fish swimming cost is often estimated from body mass and swimming speed. The parameters of the relationships between these variables and swimming cost vary...
