Individually variable energy management strategies in relation to energetic costs of egg production.
Ecology - 1 Oct 2006

Abstract excerpt
Marked interindividual variation in metabolic rate suggests considerable complexity in energy management strategies, but attempts to further our understanding of the relationship between resting metabolic rate (RMR), daily energy expenditure (DEE), and reproductive effort have been hampered by the complexity of studying this system in the field. Here, we describe energy management strategies in a captive-breeding...
