...Indeed, in modelling conditions that might give rise to a PAR, Marshall & Uller (2007) found that the life-history characteristics of the trait were key determinants of the type of response that might be anticipated....

...Whilst maternal effects were originally considered troublesome sources of variation in quantitative genetic studies (Falconer 1981), evolutionary ecologists now recognise maternal effects as one of the most important influences on offspring phenotype (Bernardo 1996a, Mousseau and Fox 1998, Wade 1998)....

...…both, selection will typically maximise maternal, rather than offspring fitness, particularly in species with no post-natal maternal care where the evolution of offspring counter-strategies may be less likely to evolve (Smith and Fretwell 1974, Trivers 1974, Bernardo 1996a, Marshall et al. 2006)....
