Multiple mating in the Glanville fritillary butterfly: a case of within-generation bet hedging?

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Mar 2007

Sarhan Alia, Kokko Hanna

Abstract excerpt

Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain multiple mating in females. One of them is bet hedging, that is avoiding having no or very few offspring in any given generation, rather than maximizing the expected number of offspring. However, within-generation bet hedging is generally believed to be an unimportant evolutionary force, except in very small populations. In this study, we derive predictions of the...
