Reproductive schedule acceleration

upin P. domesticus1

1 study
  1. Anthropogenic noise increases reproductive schedule acceleration in P. domesticus.

    “Males reared in a noisy environment had accelerated reproductive schedules, supporting a sex-specific internal PAR hypothesis.”

Annual reproductive output

1 study
  1. Anthropogenic noise decreases annual reproductive output in P. domesticus.

    “Females that hatched in a noisy environment produced fewer genetic recruits annually, supporting a sex-specific silver spoon hypothesis.”
