Maternal investment and nutrient use affect phenotype of American alligator and domestic chicken hatchlings.

Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Part A, Molecular & integrative physiology - 1 Sept 2010

Nelson Thomas C, Groth Kevin D, Sotherland Paul R

Abstract excerpt

Maternal investment by oviparous amniotes, in the form of yolk and albumen, and the mechanisms by which embryos use available energy and nutrients have a profound effect on embryo and, consequently, hatchling phenotype. Nutrient provisioning and uptake vary within and among oviparous taxa, avian and non-avian reptiles, due to differences and similarities in environment, behavior, and phylogeny. Eggs of...
