When fecundity does not equal fitness: evidence of an offspring quantity versus quality trade-off in pre-industrial humans
Maternal fitness should be maximized by the optimal division of reproductive investment between offspring number and offspring quality. While evidence for this is abundant in many taxa, there have been fewer tests in mammals, and in particular, humans. We used a dataset of humans spanning three gene...
