“…For instance, environmental factors that affect maternal fitness will influence maternal investment into individual offspring and the emergence and diversity of early life phenotypes (Burton & Metcalfe, 2014;Van Leeuwen et al, 2016;Feiner et al, 2016;Cortese et al, 2022). Parental temperature (Colson et al, 2019;Chang, Lee & Munch, 2021), oxygen (Ho & Burggren, 2012), stress (Eriksen et al, 2006(Eriksen et al, , 2007(Eriksen et al, , 2011, social ranking or interactions with conspecifics (Burton et al, 2013) can all influence egg size and/or composition to modulate offspring growth, survival and even behaviour. Variation in egg size both between females and within the same clutch has been reported in salmonids (Beacham & Murray, 1987, 1993Einum, 2003;Self et al, 2018).…”
