    Genetic architecture and lifetime dynamics of inbreeding depression in a wild mammal

    Inbreeding depression is ubiquitous, but we still know little about its genetic architecture and precise effects in wild populations. Here, we combine long-term life-history data with 417 K imputed SNP genotyp...

    No evidence for parental age effects on offspring leukocyte telomere length in free-living Soay sheep

    In humans, the effect of paternal age at conception (PAC) on offspring leukocyte telomere length (LTL) is well established, with older fathers thought to pass on longer telomeres to their offspring in their sp...

    Why large-scale climate indices seem to predict ecological processes better than local weather

    Large-scale climatic indices such as the North Atlantic Oscillation1 are associated with population dynamics2, variation in demographic rates3 and values of phenotypic traits4,5 in many species. Paradoxically, th...
