Long-lasting effects of maternal condition in free-ranging cervids.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Freeman Eric D, Larsen Randy T, Clegg Ken, McMillan Brock R

Abstract excerpt

Causes of phenotypic variation are fundamental to evolutionary ecology because they influence the traits acted upon by natural selection. One such cause of phenotypic variation is a maternal effect, which is the influence of the environment experienced by a female (and her corresponding phenotype) on the phenotype of her offspring (independent of the offspring's genotype). While maternal effects are well...
