Genetic variance in female condition predicts indirect genetic variance in male sexual display traits.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 26 Apr 2005

Petfield Donna, Chenoweth Stephen F, Rundle Howard D, Blows Mark W

Abstract excerpt

During sexual encounters, individuals often use signals, such as display traits, to attract mates. If individuals alter their display traits with respect to the genotype of potential mates, indirect genetic effects (IGEs) may occur in which the genes of one individual influence the phenotype of another. Although IGEs between related individuals have received much attention, their occurrence between unrelated...
