Parental dietary protein effects on offspring viability in insects and other oviparous invertebrates: a meta-analysis
Dietary protein is a key regulator of reproductive effort in animals, but protein consumption also tends to accelerate senescence and reduce longevity. Given this protein-mediated trade-off between reproduction and survival, how does protein consumption by parents affect the viability of their offsp...
