Parental effects on inbreeding depression in a beetle with obligate parental care
<p><span>Inbreeding depression occurs when individuals who are closely related mate and produce offspring with reduced fitness. Although inbreeding depression is a genetic phenomenon, the magnitude of inbreeding depression can be influenced by environmental conditions and parental effects. In this study, we tested whether size-based parental effects influence the magnitude of inbreeding depression in an insect with elaborate and obligate parental care (the burying beetle, <em>Nicrophorus</em> <em>orbicollis</em>). We first tested for size-dependent maternal effects on offspring size using a phenotypic manipulation experiment where we created large and small adults by manipulating the amount of time they fed as larvae. Consistent with studies of other <em>Nicrophorus</em> species, we found that larger mothers produced larger offspring. We next tested for size-dependent parental effects on the magnitude of inbreeding depression in two traits: mean larval mass and survival from larval dispersal to eclosion. As in our first experiment, we found that larger parents produced larger offspring. However, larval mass was also influenced by the interaction between parental body size and inbreeding status: when parents were small, inbred larvae were smaller than outbred larvae, but when parents were large this pattern was reversed. In contrast, survival from larval dispersal to adult emergence showed inbreeding depression that was unaffected by parental body size. Our results suggest that size-based parental effects can generate variation in the magnitude of inbreeding depression. However, further work is needed to dissect the mechanisms through which this might occur and to better understand why parental size influences inbreeding depression in some traits but not others.</span></p>
Data for: Nestling mouth colors mediate parental favoritism but minimally influence detectability
<p>Young animals often solicit care from their parents using behaviors and morphologies collectively termed begging. Many nestling altricial birds add to their familiar postures and vocalizations by displaying colorful mouthparts, hypothesized to enhance their visual conspicuousness and/or signal information about individual quality. We evaluated these hypotheses with three experimental manipulations of the flange tissue of house sparrow (<em>Passer domesticus</em>) nestlings. We allowed parents to interact with nestlings that appeared to have either carotenoid-rich or carotenoid-poor flanges, and then with nestlings that appeared similar in carotenoid-richness but differed in either brightness (total light reflected) or ultraviolet richness. These three features of flange color comprise much of the variation observed both within and among species. Neither our manipulation of apparent carotenoid- nor UV-richness shaped parents' ability to transfer prey efficiently to nestlings, a proxy for how visually detectable nestlings were. We found some evidence that brightness shaped parents' ability to transfer large prey items. Parents preferentially allocated prey to nestlings that appeared carotenoid-rich, but did not bias allocation when we manipulated brightness or UV reflectance. These patterns suggest that nestlings displaying carotenoid-rich flanges benefit from parental favoritism, and that any role of brightness in offspring-parent interactions comes via detectability benefits. UV reflectance does not seem to shape parental care. Efforts to understand mouth color in the context of offspring-parent communication and visual signal evolution may benefit from considering the component parts of color, as they may function, be constrained, and evolve independently.</p>
