The repeatability of metabolic rate declines with time.

The Journal of experimental biology - 15 May 2013

White Craig R, Schimpf Natalie G, Cassey Phillip

Abstract excerpt

The evolutionary causes of variation in metabolic rate within and among species are a topic of enduring interest. Variation between individuals is the raw material on which natural selection acts, and so recent years have seen an increase in the number of studies that examine the consequences of inter-individual differences in metabolic rate for organismal performance. A minimum requirement for a trait to evolve...
