Geographic variation, frequency-dependent selection, and the maintenance of a female-limited polymorphism.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jan 2010

Calsbeek Ryan, Bonvini Lauren, Cox Robert M

Abstract excerpt

A central problem in evolutionary biology is to understand how spatial and temporal variation in selection maintain genetic variation within and among populations. Brown anole lizards (Anolis sagrei) exhibit a dorsal pattern polymorphism that is expressed only in females, which occur in "diamond,...
