Does variance in reproductive success limit effective population sizes of marine organisms
D Hedgecock - Genetics and evolution of aquatic organisms, 1994 - books.google.com
Substantial variation in reproductive success is made possible by the great fecundity and
high early mortality of many marine organisms. A small minority of individuals can replace …

Predicting optimal and unique egg sizes in free-spawning marine invertebrates
DR Levitan - The American Naturalist, 1996 - journals.uchicago.edu
Free-spawning marine invertebrates release eggs into the environment, where they are
fertilized, develop, and grow without further parental investment. This trait provides a unique …
