Mutation and sexual selection: a test using barn swallows from Chernobyl.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Sept 2003

Møller A P, Mousseau T A

Abstract excerpt

Secondary sexual characters have been hypothesized to be particularly susceptible to the deleterious effects of mutation because the expression of such characters is usually influenced by many more metabolic pathways than are ordinary morphological characters. We tested this hypothesis using the...
