Maternal adversity and ecological stressors in natural populations: the role of stress axis programming in individuals, with implications for populations and communities

2012-08-24

Abstract excerpt

Summary Biomedical researchers have long appreciated that maternal stressors can induce preparative and adaptive programming in offspring via exposure to maternal Glucocorticoids ( GC s). However, few ecologists are aware of the capacity for maternal GC exposure to translate ecological and environmental stressors into preparative and adaptive programmed offspring responses in free‐living systems. We review a growi...
