Flexible parental care: Uniparental incubation in biparentally incubating shorebirds

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The relative investment of females and males into parental care might depend on the populations adult sex ratio. For example, all else being equal, males should be the more caring sex if the sex ratio is male biased. Whether such outcomes are evolutionary fixed (i.e. related to the species typical sex ratio) or whether they arise through flexible responses of individuals to the current population sex ratio remains unclear. Nevertheless, a flexible response might be limited by the evolutionary history of the species, because one sex may have lost the ability to care or because a single parent cannot successfully raise the brood. Here, we demonstrate that after the disappearance of one parent, individuals from 8 out of 15 biparentally incubating shorebird species were able to incubate uniparentally for 1 to 19 days (median = 3, N= 69). Moreover, their daily incubation rhythm often resembled that of obligatory uniparental shorebird species. Although it has been suggested that in some biparental shoreb
