Sex-specific effects of the in ovo environment on early-life phenotypes in eiders.

Oecologia - 1 Jan 2020

Öst Markus, Noreikiene Kristina, Angelier Frederic, Jaatinen Kim

Abstract excerpt

Maternal effects affect offspring phenotype and fitness. However, the roles of offspring sex-specific sensitivity to maternal glucocorticoids and sex-biased maternal investment remain unclear. It is also uncertain whether telomere length (a marker associated with lifespan) depends on early growth in a sex-specific manner. We assessed whether maternal traits including corticosterone (CORT; the main avian...
