Growth. 1978 Dec;42(4):434-50.
Multivariate allometry, and conservative and nonconservative growth models are generalized by a set of global differential equations, preserving the linear trajectory property. Linear least squares methods are exposited for estimation of parameters, comparing special cases and drawing qualitative conclusions. Three classical sets of data are analyzed in detail, illustrating the usefulness and simplicity of the method.
多元异速生长以及保守和非保守生长模型由一组全局微分方程推广而来，保留了线性轨迹特性。阐述了用于参数估计、比较特殊情况和得出定性结论的线性最小二乘法。详细分析了三组经典数据集，说明了该方法的实用性和简便性。
