p ‐Selmer growth in extensions of degree p

There is a known analogy between growth questions for class groups and for Selmer groups. If $p$ is a prime, then the $p$-torsion of the ideal class group grows unboundedly in $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$-extensions of a fixed number field $K$, so one expects the same for the $p$-Selmer group of a nonzero abelian variety over $K$. This Selmer group analogue is known in special cases and we prove it in general, along with a version for arbitrary global fields.
