Maternal investment affects offspring phenotypic plasticity in a viviparous cockroach.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 13 Apr 2004

Holbrook Glenn L, Schal Coby

Abstract excerpt

Maternal effects, crossgenerational influences of the mother's phenotype on phenotypic variation in offspring, can profoundly influence the fitness of offspring. In insects especially, social interactions during larval development also can alter life-history traits. To date, however, no experimen...
