Incubation temperature influences trade-off between structural size and energy reserves in mallard hatchlings.

Physiological and biochemical zoology : PBZ - 1 Jan 2000

Koláčková Martina, Prokůpková Ludmila, Albrecht Tomáš, Hořák David

Abstract excerpt

The reproductive success of precocial birds depends on investments in clutch formation and incubation. Egg quality strongly affects the phenotypic traits correlated with survival of the hatchling, but parental ability to maintain incubation temperature can also influence hatchling outcomes. The effect of incubation temperature on hatchling phenotype has been widely studied in reptiles but not in birds. The aim of...
