Maternal age at maturation underpins contrasting behavior in offspring

In nature, vast differences in growth or size are frequently observed among young born to mothers of different age. However, it is unknown if there can be other, more subtle differences among offspring born to young versus old mothers? In Atlantic salmon, we reveal that despite being similar in size...
