Evolutionary implications of interspecific variation in a maternal effect: a meta-analysis of yolk testosterone response to competition

Competition between conspecifics during the breeding season can result in behavioural and physiological programming of offspring via maternal effects. For birds, in which maternal effects are best studied, it has been claimed that exposure to increased competition causes greater deposition of testos...
