Nutrition regulates reproductive senescence and terminal investment across the reproductive cycle of a long-lived mammal

Abstract Deterioration in nutritional condition with aging could reduce reproductive success but coincides with declines in residual reproductive potential, thus invoking opposing expectations for late-life reproduction. Yet, the mechanisms regulating energy accrual and allocation to reproduction an...
