Seasonal rhythms in reproduction are conserved across nature and optimize the timing of
breeding to environmental conditions favorable for offspring and parent survival. The …

Seasonal reproduction is a widespread adaptation in vertebrates, such that individuals time
their reproductive efforts to match peak resource abundance. Individuals rely on …

Divergent migratory strategies among populations can result in population‐level differences
in timing of reproduction (allochrony) and local adaptation. However, the mechanisms …

The colonization of urban environments by animals is often accompanied by earlier
breeding and associated changes in seasonal schedules. Accelerated timing of seasonal …

Many species have shifted their breeding phenology in response to climate change.
Identifying the magnitude of phenological shifts and whether climate‐mediated selection …

Allochrony, the mismatch of reproductive schedules, is one mechanism that can mediate
sympatric speciation and diversification. In songbirds, the transition into breeding condition …

Mechanisms related to seasonal reproductive timing in vertebrates have received far more
study in males than in females, despite the fact that female timing decisions dictate when …

Seasonal timing of reproduction is a key life-history trait, but we know little about the
mechanisms underlying individual variation in female endocrine profiles associated with …

In the modern era of industrialization, illuminated nights have become a common defining
feature of human-occupied environments, particularly cities. Artificial light at night (ALAN) …

The initiation of reproduction in many seasonally breeding animals is controlled by
photoperiod and tends to be clinal: populations at higher latitudes breed later than those at …
