Fig 1. Symmetry-breaking elements define longitudinal proportions in long bones.

Fig 1

Three-dimensional reconstruction from micro-CT scans of the six limb long bones at P40. The longitudinal position of each element is indicated either by a single colored mark on the tip of the superstructure or by two colored marks at its proximal (P) and distal (D) margins, depending on the size and the morphology of the superstructure. Margins that overlap with the end of the bone or with a growth plate were not marked.
