Adaptive evolution in Myostatin a muscle growth regulator
A pre-print in AJHG discusses Myostatin, a negative regulator of muscle growth. Loss of function mutations in Myostatin cause organisms to grow bigger muscles. According to this study, two variants of this gene have been under recent
Human Adaptive Evolution at Myostatin GDF8, a Regulator of
Myostatin (GDF8) is a negative regulator of muscle growth in mammals, and loss-of-function mutations are associated with increased skeletal-muscle mass in mice, cattle, and humans. Here, we show that positive natural selection has acted
Lessons from the Startup Front… Let the Games Begin!

The Evolution of the Zodiac and the Precession of the Equinoxes
Esotericists have long contended that the evolution of humanity out of the dressed, and set in place by sheer muscle-power is about as believable as the Growth occurs through gradual accretion, while higher states of being are
Another "muscle gene" shows population differences

Gene Regulatory Networks in the Evolution and Development of the Heart
Heart development is controlled by an evolutionarily conserved network of transcription factors that connect signaling pathways with genes for muscle growth, patterning, and contractility. During evolution, this ancestral gene network

Testosterone influences skeletal growth and maintenance by signaling through both bone cells and possibly indirect effects upon muscle or vascular cells (11). and energy expenditure rates, and decreased leg muscle strength (27).
