FIGURE 1.

Landscape review framework. Four phases of human early-life growth and development (upper panel) are scaled against the accelerated development of agricultural species (lower bars) based on age at sexual maturity. Normal and stunted linear growth over the first 1000 d postconception are illustrated. This review categorically addresses opportunities for improving maternal and infant health and growth during these 4 developmental phases, drawing upon insights gleaned from research on agricultural species.
