Parent-offspring coadaptation and the dual genetic control of maternal care.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 1 Jun 2001

Agrawal A F, Brodie E D, Brown J

Abstract excerpt

In many animal species, the amount of care provided by parents is determined through a complex interaction of offspring signals and responses by parents to those signals. As predicted by honest signaling theory, we show that in the burrower bug, Sehirus cinctus, maternal provisioning responds to...
