Variation in levels of reactive oxygen species is explained by maternal identity, sex and body-size-corrected clutch size in a lizard.
Many organisms show differences between males and females in growth rate and crucial life history parameters, such as longevity. Considering this, we may expect levels of toxic metabolic by-products of the respiratory chain, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS), to vary with age and sex. Here, we a...
