Direction and magnitude of natural selection on body size differ among age‐classes of seaward‐migrating Pacific salmon
Abstract Due to the mediating role of body size in determining fitness, the “bigger‐is‐better” hypothesis still pervades evolutionary ecology despite evidence that natural selection on phenotypic traits varies in time and space. For Pacific salmon (genus Oncorhynchus), most individual studies quanti...
