Females adjust maternal hormone concentration in eggs according to male condition in a burying beetle.

Hormones and behavior - 1 May 2020

Abstract excerpt

In birds and other vertebrates, there is good evidence that females adjust the allocation of hormones in their eggs in response to prenatal environmental conditions, such as food availability or male phenotype, with profound consequences for life history traits of offspring. In insects, there is also evidence that females deposit juvenile hormones (JH) and ecdysteroids (ESH) in their eggs, hormones that play a...
