Adaptive paternal effects? Experimental evidence that the paternal environment affects offspring performance.
The ability of females to adaptively influence offspring phenotype via maternal effects is widely acknowledged, but corresponding nongenetic paternal effects remain unexplored. Males can adjust sperm phenotype in response to local conditions, but the transgenerational consequences of this plasticity are unknown. We manipulated paternal density of a broadcast spawner (Styela plicata, a solitary ...
متن کاملPaternal Behavior and Offspring Aggression
Aggression can have a critical impact on the functioning of societies. Some aspects of aggression have received considerable attention, such as links between parenting behavior and offspring aggression in humans. Although acknowledged as being important to the understanding of human aggression, animal aggression has been relatively unstudied. Recent mammalian animal research is emerging that ad...
متن کاملCircadian Disruption
Circadian rhythms are a prominent and critical feature of cells, tissues, organs, and behavior that help an organism function most efficiently and anticipate things such as food availability. Therefore, it is not surprising that disrupted circadian rhythmicity, a prominent feature of modern-day society, promotes the development and/or progression of a wide variety of diseases, including inflamm...
متن کاملOffspring sex ratios at birth as markers of paternal endocrine disruption.
There is good evidence that paternal (and maternal) hormone levels at the time of conception are associated with offspring sex ratios (proportions male) at birth. The mechanisms underlying this association (pre- or postzygotic) are not of primary relevance here. When people are exposed to endocrine-disrupting agents, these agents may have different hormonal effects on men and women. So, if endo...
متن کاملPaternal investment and status-related child outcomes: timing of father's death affects offspring success.
Recent work in human behavioural ecology has suggested that analyses focusing on early childhood may underestimate the importance of paternal investment to child outcomes since such investment may not become crucial until adolescence or beyond. This may be especially important in societies with a heritable component to status, as later investment by fathers may be more strongly related to a chi...
