Assessing the potential for an ongoing arms race within and between the sexes: selection and heritable variation.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jul 2005

Friberg Urban, Lew Timothy A, Byrne Phillip G, Rice William R

Abstract excerpt

In promiscuous species, sexual selection generates two opposing male traits: offense (acquiring new mates and supplanting stored sperm) and defense (enforcing fidelity on one's mates and preventing sperm displacement when this fails). Coevolution between these traits requires both additive genetic variation and associated natural selection. Previous work with Drosophila melanogaster found autosomal genetic...
