A trade-off between reproduction and a condition-dependent sexually selected ornament in the house sparrow Passer domesticus.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Jun 2000

Griffith S C

Abstract excerpt

Reproductive effort was manipulated in a free-living population of house sparrows (Passer domesticus) to investigate the trade-off between reproductive investment and the expression of a condition-dependent sexually selected ornament. Phenotypic plasticity in the expression of this trait was related to the experimentally manipulated size of the brood reared by a male. Males that invested more in current...
