Actuarial senescence in a dimorphic bird: different rates of ageing in morphs with discrete reproductive strategies

It is often hypothesized that intra-sexual competition accelerates actuarial senescence, or the increase in mortality rates with age. However, an alternative hypothesis is that parental investment is more important to determining senescence rates. We used a unique model system, the white-throated sp...
