Does Hormonal Pleiotropy Shape the Evolution of Performance and Life History Traits?

Integrative and comparative biology - 1 Aug 2017

Dantzer Ben, Swanson Eli M

Abstract excerpt

SYNOPSIS: Hormonal pleiotropy occurs when a part of the endocrine system (e.g., hormone concentrations) influences the expression of two or more phenotypes. Although hormonal pleiotropy may have similar evolutionary consequences as genetic pleiotropy, most conceptual and empirical work on its putative evolutionary consequences to date has focused on identifying whether the different components of an endocrine...
