Giving offspring a head start in life: field and experimental evidence for selection on maternal basking behaviour in lizards.
The timing of birth is often correlated with offspring fitness in animals, but experimental studies that disentangle direct effects of parturition date and indirect effects mediated via variation in female traits are rare. In viviparous ectotherms, parturition date is largely driven by female therma...
