Resource availabiility, CORT, and fitness in the mountain bluebird (Sialia currucoides)
Meeting Abstract 90-7 Sunday, Jan. 6 11:45 – 12:00 Resource availabiility, CORT, and fitness in the mountain bluebird (Sialia currucoides) BERK, SA*; BREUNER, C; University of Montana; University of Montana sara.berk@umconnect.umt.edu Researchers have long been interested in relationships between the corticosterone (CORT) stress response and fitness. The CORT-fitness hypothesis predicts that increased environmental challenge leads to elevated […]
