About Erik Postma

Erik Postma, With an exceptional h-index of 28 and a recent h-index of 20 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at University of Exeter, specializes in the field of Evolutionary genetics, life-history evolution, quantitative genetics.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Experimental quantification of genetic and ontogenetic effects on fighting behavior in the broad-horned flour beetle

Low interspecific variation and no phylogenetic signal in additive genetic variance in wild bird and mammal populations

Rapid decline of prenatal maternal effects with age is independent of postnatal environment in a precocial bird

The long-lasting legacy of reproduction: lifetime reproductive success shapes expected genetic contributions of humans after 10 generations

Health and lifespan of Swiss men born in an alpine region in 1905–1907

Low‐coverage reduced representation sequencing reveals subtle within‐island genetic structure in Aldabra giant tortoises

Genetic variance in fitness indicates rapid contemporary adaptive evolution in wild animals

Mothers with higher twinning propensity had lower fertility in pre-industrial Europe
