| Résumé : | Adaptations that minimize the effects of stress are important components of avian development and have a role in structuring the relationship between development and fitness. I examined the effect of experimental manipulations of developmental stress during the nestling and fledgling stages on weight gain, growth in structural size, and take-off flight speed of juvenile mourning doves Zenaida macroura. Brood size was manipulated during the nestling stage ( |
