Embryonic methionine triggers post-natal developmental programming in Japanese quail
Embryonic development is one of the most sensitive and critical stages when maternal
effects may influence the offspring's phenotype. In birds and other oviparous species …

Population divergence in maternal investment and embryo energy use and allocation suggests adaptive responses to cool climates
The thermal sensitivity of early life stages can play a fundamental role in constraining
species distributions. For egg‐laying ectotherms, cool temperatures often extend …

Effect of prenatal glucocorticoids and thyroid hormones on developmental plasticity of mitochondrial aerobic metabolism, growth and survival: an experimental test in …
Developmental plasticity is partly mediated by transgenerational effects, including those

Maternal developmental history alters transfer of circadian clock genes to offspring in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica)
