The evolution of reproductive strategies in turtles

Optimal egg size theory assumes that changes in the egg and clutch are driven by selection, resulting in adjustments for the largest possible production of offspring with the highest fitness.Evidence supports the idea that large-bodied turtles tend to produce larger clutches with small and round eggs, while smaller Basil species produce small clutc
