- Optimality theory has been successful in explaining diversity in life-history traits such as age of first breeding, number of breeding attempts and number of offspring produced at each.
- If such balancing selection maintains a substantial fraction of life-history variation, it will generate negative genetic correlations among life-history traits.
- By contrast, both theories are consistent with the presence of genetic variation for ageing, which is the norm for quantitative characters including other life-history traits.
- Pinsky et al. analyzed two independent fisheries databases, collectively describing 578 species over 60 years, to figure out which life-history traits might correlate with population collapse.
- Changes in life-history traits of Fall Webworm within half a century of introduction into Japan.

- Phylogeny, biogeography, and the evolution of life-history traits in Leucadendron (Proteaceae)
- It has been particularly useful as a model for the study of the evolution of various life-history traits, particularly clutch size.
