Phenotypically flexible sex allocation in a simultaneous hermaphrodite.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jan 2007

Brauer Verena S, Schärer Lukas, Michiels Nico K

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies on sex allocation in simultaneous hermaphrodites have typically focused either on evolutionary or one-time, ontogenetic optimization of sex allocation, ignoring variation within an individual's lifetime. Here, we study whether hermaphrodites also possess facultative sex allocation, that is, a phenotypic flexibility, allowing them to distribute resources to either sex in an opportunistic way...
