Environmental and genetic influences on body mass and resting metabolic rates (RMR) in a natural population of weasel Mustela nivalisNARA Subscribed
Body mass (BM) and resting metabolic rates (RMR) are two inexorably linked traits strongly related to mammalian life histories. Yet, there have been no studies attempting to estimate heritable variation and covariation of BM and RMR in natural populations. We used a marker‐based approach to construct a pedigree and then the ‘animal model’ to estimate narrow sense heritability ( h 2 ) of these traits in a free‐living population...
