Sex-Biased Litter Reduction in Food-Restricted Wood Rats (Neotoma floridana).

P A McClure.   

Abstract

Mothers of eastern wood rats (Neotoma floridana) normally invest their lactation energy equally in male and female offspring, but alter that investment when their food is severely restricted during lactation. The effect of the altered investment is a significant bias against males in both mortality and growth.
