摘要

Little is known about the occurrence of individual variation in sexual behavior and how maternal nutrition can affect this variation. We tested the hypothesis that male offspring of female meadow voles, Microtus pennsylvanicus, that were 30% food restricted (FR) during days 1–7 of lactation (FR 1–7), days 8–14 of lactation (FR 8–14), or late days 15–21 of lactation (FR 15–21) lactation show persistent, negative effects on their sexual behavior as adults relative to male offspring of females that were not food restricted. We measured three components of sexual behavior, attractivity, proceptivity and receptivity, beginning when the males were 98 days of age. Food restriction during middle lactation (FR 8–14) but not during early (FR 1–7) and late lactation (FR 15–21) was sufficient to induce adult male voles to produce anogenital marks that were not as attractive as those produced by control males. Food restriction during lactation did not affect the proceptive behavior of male voles but did affect their receptivity. Only 4 of 12 FR 8–14 male voles mated compared to 9 of 12 FR 1–7 males, 8 of 12 FR 15–21 males, and 8 of 11 control males. However, no differencesexisted in their copulatory behavior among the males that did mate. The bodyweight of FR 1–7 and FR 8–14 males was lower than that of FR15–21 and control males when they were between 22 days of age (weaning)and 48 days of age (puberty) but was similar when the males were 98 days of age.Food intake was similar for the FR and control males between day 22 and day 98.It remains unclear, however, if this type of maternal effect representsstrategic programming of offspring behavior in response to the environmentexperienced by mothers or is a product of developmental processes of foodrestriction prior to weaning (href="#R18" rid="R18" class=" bibr popnode tag_hotlink tag_tooltip" id="__tag_527581277">Forstmeier et al.2004).
