Lifetime reproductive success in relation to morphology in the house sparrow Passer domesticus (2004, background): “Because LRS in natural populations is generally assumed to be a relatively good estimate of fitness (Grafen 1988; Newton 1989b; but see Benton & Grant 2000), identifying phenotypic characteristics of those successful individuals will provide important insight into the evolutionary processes in the…”
Lifetime reproductive success in common buzzard, Buteo buteo: from individual variation to population demography (2001, background): “that number of fledglings produced is not necessarily a good measure for fitness (Benton and Grant 2000).”
Decomposing the variation in population growth into contributions from multiple demographic rates (2005, background): “This is because life-history variation − including cohort effects − generates variation in demographic rates that can be correlated (Benton & Grant 1999b, 2000; Beckerman et al. 2002; Beckerman et al. 2003).”
