Abstract

Hatching asynchrony is understood as a female tactic that shapes family dynamics, but its adjustment mechanisms and adaptiveness remain unclear. Using 32 years of individual data on a Neotropical seabird, the blue-footed booby, Sula nebouxii, we examined variation in hatching asynchrony in relation to sea surface temperature, a proxy for food abundance, and hatching asynchrony's adaptiveness. Under warm sea surface temperature, signalling low food abundance, females extended laying interval, resulting in increased hatching asynchrony. Longer hatching asynchrony was associated with more probable and earlier brood reduction. When brood reduction occurred, longer hatching asynchrony improved females' prospect of breeding the next year but not their timing of laying or production of fledglings and recruits. By extending laying interval, female boobies increase hatching asynchrony to cope with poor food conditions by prompting early brood reduction, thereby reducing reproductive costs and enhancing the probability of breeding the next year. Understanding the temperature sensitivity of plastic reproductive traits is crucial for predicting organisms' responses and resilience to global warming.

雌鸟是否会根据气候线索弹性调整孵化异步性作为一种生殖策略?
孵化异步被认为是雌鸟影响家庭动态的一种策略,但其调整机制和适应性仍不清楚。利用新热带海鸟蓝脚鲣鸟(Sula nebouxii)32年的个体数据,我们研究了孵化异步与海面温度(食物丰度的代表)的关系以及孵化异步的适应性。在温暖的海面温度下,即食物丰度较低的情况下,雌鱼产卵间隔延长,导致孵化异步性增加。更长的孵化异步与更可能和更早的减窝有关。当雏鸟减少时,较长的孵化异步期会改善雌鸟第二年的繁殖前景,但不会改善它们的产卵时间或雏鸟和新鸟的产量。通过延长产卵间隔,雌性鲣鸟提高了孵化异步性,以应对恶劣的食物条件,促使雏鸟尽早减少,从而降低了繁殖成本,提高了来年繁殖的概率。了解可塑性生殖特征对温度的敏感性对于预测生物对全球变暖的反应和适应能力至关重要。

期刊介绍: Growing interest in behavioural biology and the international reputation of Animal Behaviour prompted an expansion to monthly publication in 1989. Animal Behaviour continues to be the journal of choice for biologists, ethologists, psychologists, physiologists, and veterinarians with an interest in the subject.
