Parental care modifies the role of early-life size and growth in shaping future physiology

Zachary M. Laubach, Sage A. Madden, Aleea Pardue, Rebecca J. Safran

The paper examines how parental care affects the relationship between early-life size, growth, and glucose metabolism in nestling barn swallows, finding that lower parental care intensifies the physiological disadvantage of being smaller.
