Costs of reproduction are predicted to differ between alternative reproductive strategies or modes, such as egg\u2010laying (oviparity) or live\u2010bearing (viviparity). However, disentangling the factors that comprise this cost and how it differs for oviparous or viviparous females is challenging due to myriad environmental, biological, and evolutionary confounds. Here, we tested the hypothesis that costs of pregnancy differ between oviparous and viviparous common lizards (<jats:italic>Zootoca vivipara<\/jats:italic>). We predicted that the degree of locomotor impairment during pregnancy and therefore the cost of reproduction would be higher in viviparous females. We conducted our experiment in a hybrid zone containing oviparous and viviparous common lizards. Due to the common environment and inclusion of hybrid individuals, we could infer whether differences were inherent to parity mode. We found that the average and maximum running speed of pregnant females was slower than after they had given birth or laid eggs. Viviparous females experienced an additional pregnancy weight burden and for a longer time period, but were not slower at running than pregnant oviparous females. In addition, we found a parity mode\u2010specific effect of reproductive investment; producing larger clutches was costlier for the locomotor performance of viviparous females for reasons other than the mass increase. Locomotor costs were found to be intermediate in hybrid females, indicating that they are specific to each reproductive mode. Our study shows that viviparous females experience an additional physical and physiological cost of pregnancy and reproductive investment. This two\u2010fold cost implies that viviparous females modulate resource allocation decisions and\/or adjust their behavioural responses that result from locomotor impairment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ece3.70171","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,16]],"date-time":"2024-08-16T08:53:29Z","timestamp":1723798409000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Higher locomotor costs of pregnancy in viviparous compared to oviparous common lizards (<i>Zootoca vivipara<\/i>)"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6647-1791","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Robert","family":"Hussain","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biodiversity, One Health &amp; Veterinary Medicine, College of Medical, Veterinary &amp; Life Sciences University of Glasgow  Glasgow UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2728-0690","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hans","family":"Recknagel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biodiversity, One Health &amp; Veterinary Medicine, College of Medical, Veterinary &amp; Life Sciences University of Glasgow  Glasgow UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9219-7001","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kathryn R.","family":"Elmer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biodiversity, One Health &amp; Veterinary Medicine, College of Medical, Veterinary &amp; Life Sciences University of Glasgow  Glasgow UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/icb\/23.2.347"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/4133"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/1467051"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1655\/0733-1347(2007)20[131:SRAMOF]2.0.CO;2"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1420\u20109101.2012.02518.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1071\/MF18076"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00180298"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1558\u20105646.2009.00906.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/286055"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jtherbio.2017.02.005"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1365\u20102435.12813"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1242\/jeb.104315"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_14_1","first-page":"240","volume-title":"Ecological morphology: Integrative organismal biology","author":"Garland T.","year":"1994"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469\u20107998.2006.00129.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_16_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Morphological variations in the common lizard, Lacerta (Zootoca) vivipara","volume":"13","author":"Guillaume C.\u2010.
