Long-term effects of manipulated natal brood size on metabolic rate in zebra finches

5 Jun 2006

Abstract excerpt

Long-term effects of developmental conditions on health, longevity and other fitness components in humans are drawing increasing attention. In evolutionary ecology, such effects are of similar importance because of their role in the trade-off between quantity and quality of offspring. The central role of energy consumption is well documented for some long-term health effects in humans (e.g. obesity), but little...
