Natural variation in yolk fatty acids, but not androgens, predicts offspring fitness in a wild bird
BACKGROUND: In egg-laying animals, mothers can influence the developmental environment and thus the phenotype of their offspring by secreting various substances into the egg yolk. In birds, recent studies have demonstrated that different yolk substances can interactively affect offspring phenotype,...
