Catch-up growth in Japanese quail (Coturnix Japonica): relationships with food intake, metabolic rate and sex.

Journal of comparative physiology. B, Biochemical, systemic, and environmental physiology - 1 Aug 2013

Chin Eunice H, Storm-Suke Andrea L, Kelly Ryan J, Burness Gary

Abstract excerpt

The effects of early environmental conditions can profoundly affect individual development and adult phenotype. In birds, limiting resources can affect growth as nestlings, but also fitness and survival as adults. Following periods of food restriction, individuals may accelerate development, undergoing a period of rapid "catch-up" growth, in an attempt to reach the appropriate size at adulthood.
