A phallus for free? Quantitative genetics of sexual trade-offs in the snail Bulinus truncatus.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Jan 2003

Ostrowski M F, Jarne P, David P

Abstract excerpt

Resource allocation is thought to play a key role in the coexistence of different sexual morphs within hermaphroditic species. Indeed, most models assume that sexual functions are subject to a balance between reproductive advantage and energetic cost. Various types of cost (e.g. organ constructio...
