Breeding seasonality generates reproductive trade-offs in a long-lived mammal

2021-01-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The evolutionary benefits of reproductive seasonality are usually measured by a single fitness component, namely offspring survival to nutritional independence (Bronson, 2009). Yet different fitness components may be maximised by dissimilar birth timings. This may generate fitness trade-offs that could be critical to understanding variation in reproductive timing across individuals, populations...
