Does clutch size evolve in response to parasites and immunocompetence? Does clutch size evolve in response to parasites and immunocompetence?
Parasites have been argued to influence clutch size evolution, but past work and theory has largely focused on within-species optimization solutions rather than clearly addressing among-species variation. The effects of parasites on clutch size variation among species can be complex, however, because different parasites can induce age-specific differences in mortality that can cause...
