How Do Growth and Sibling Competition Affect Telomere Dynamics in the First Month of Life of Long-Lived Seabird?

Telomeres are nucleotide sequences located at the ends of chromosomes that promote genome stability.Changes in telomere length (dynamics) are related to fitness or life expectancy, and telomere dynamics during the development phase are likely to be affected by growth and stress factors.Here, we examined telomere dynamics of black-tailed gull chicks
