Repeated loss of variation in insect ovary morphology highlights the role of development in life-history evolution
The number of offspring an organism can produce is a key component of its evolutionary fitness and life history. Here we perform a test of the hypothesized trade-off between the number and size of offspring using thousands of descriptions of the number of egg-producing compartments in the insect ova...
