Causes and consequences of variation in early‐life telomere length in a bird metapopulation

Causes and consequences of variation in early‐life telomere length in a bird metapopulation

Abstract Environmental conditions during early‐life development can have lasting effects shaping individual heterogeneity in fitness and fitness‐related traits. The length of telomeres, the DNA sequences protecting chromosome ends, may be affected by early‐life conditions, and telomere length (TL) h...
