Sex‐Specific Variation in Foraging Behavior is Related to Telomere Length in a Long‐Lived Seabird

Sex‐Specific Variation in Foraging Behavior is Related to Telomere Length in a Long‐Lived Seabird

ABSTRACT Foraging during breeding is a demanding activity linked to breeding investment and possibly constrained by individual quality. Telomere length, the protective nucleoproteins located at the ends of the chromosomes, is considered a trait reflecting somatic maintenance and individual quality....
