Outbreeding increases offspring survival in wild greater horseshoe bats (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum).

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 May 2001

Rossiter S J, Jones G, Ransome R D, Barratt E M

Abstract excerpt

The factors influencing the survival of greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum) offspring born over seven years at a maternity colony in south-west Britain were studied. The effects of a range of phenotypic and maternal variables were analysed using a historical data set. In addition, the influence of two genetic measures on mortality, individual heterozygosity and a new measure of outbreeding, termed...
