The evolution of offspring size across life-history stages
HK Kindsvater, SP Otto - The American Naturalist, 2014 - journals.uchicago.edu
Females vary in the size of offspring that they produce, often in a manner that depends on
maternal age or stage. This is puzzling, given that offspring size is predicted to evolve to a …
