The genetic architecture of a female sexual ornament.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jan 2008

Wright Dominic, Kerje Susanne, Brändström Helena, Schütz Karin, Kindmark Andreas, Andersson Leif, Jensen Per, Pizzari Tommaso

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the evolution of sexual ornaments, and particularly that of female sexual ornaments, is an enduring challenge in evolutionary biology. Key to this challenge are establishing the relationship between ornament expression and female reproductive investment, and determining the genetic basis underpinning such relationship. Advances in genomics provide unprecedented opportunities to study the genetic...
