Effects of paternal phenotype and environmental variability on age and size at maturity in a male dimorphic mite.

Die Naturwissenschaften - 1 Apr 2011

Smallegange Isabel M

Abstract excerpt

Investigating how the environment affects age and size at maturity of individuals is crucial to understanding how changes in the environment affect population dynamics through the biology of a species. Paternal phenotype, maternal, and offspring environment may crucially influence these traits, but to my knowledge, their combined effects have not yet been tested. Here, I found that in bulb mites (Rhizoglyphus...
