Egg production and individual genetic diversity in lesser kestrels.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 2007

Ortego Joaquín, Calabuig Gustau, Cordero Pedro J, Aparicio José Miguel

Abstract excerpt

Fecundity is an important component of individual fitness and has major consequences on population dynamics. Despite this, the influence of individual genetic variability on egg production traits is poorly known. Here, we use two microsatellite-based measures, homozygosity by loci and internal relatedness, to analyse the influence of female genotypic variation at 11 highly variable microsatellite loci on both...
