Short- and long-term effects of developmental corticosterone exposure on avian physiology,behavioral phenotype,cognition,and fitness: A review

A growing body of evidence from across taxa suggests that exposure to elevated levels of glucocorticoids during early development can have long-term effects upon physiological and behavioral phenotypes. Additionally, there is some, though limited, evidence that similar early exposure can also negati...
