Parasite infection, host resistance and mate choice: battle of the genders in a simultaneous hermaphrodite.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Jul 2003

Webster Joanne P, Hoffman Joseph I, Berdoy Manuel

Abstract excerpt

Parasites have been proposed to be fundamental in the evolution of mate choice because differential mating on the basis of heritable disease resistance is expected to lead to progeny with a better genome-environment match than random mating. However, direct empirical data in support of this hypot...
