Abstract excerpt
Phenotypic traits often covary through shared genetic and environmental influences, shaping the evolution of integrated life-history strategies. In particular, correlations between behavioral and life-history traits form the core of the pace-of-life syndrome (POLS) hypothesis, yet direct experimental tests of its evolutionary and molecular foundations remain limited. Here, we combined experimental evolution and...
