Oxygen hypothesis of polar gigantism not supported by performance of Antarctic pycnogonids in hypoxia

Compared to temperate and tropical relatives, some high-latitude marine species are large-bodied, a phenomenon known as polar gigantism. A leading hypothesis on the physiological basis of gigantism posits that, in polar water, high oxygen availability coupled to low metabolic rates relieves constrai...
