The ovary is key to linking environmental factors with the timing and quality of offspring development. Focused on free-living female tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor), we measured temporal variation in ovarian expression of genes involve...
Female Starlings With Experimentally Impaired Pre-Laying Condition Produce Smaller But Vitamin A Richer Eggs [0.03%]
实验性降低家鸦产卵前期状态使其产下的蛋个头变小但维生素含量增加
S Casquero,I Redondo,E Gómez-Llanos et al.
S Casquero et al.
Egg production is a main reproductive investment for females and a powerful pathway of maternal effects in oviparous species. The number and size of eggs in a clutch directly determine the amount and viability of the offspring. Similarly, y...
Growth but Not Corticosterone, Oxidative Stress, or Telomere Length Is Negatively Affected by Microplastic Exposure in a Filter-Feeding Amphibian [0.03%]
