Body reserves mediate trade-offs between life-history traits: new insights from small pelagic fish reproduction
Limited resources in the environment prevent individuals from simultaneously maximizing all life-history traits, resulting in trade-offs. In particular, the cost of reproduction is well known to negatively affect energy investment in growth and maintenance. Here, we investigated these trade-offs dur...
