Perspective: matching, mate choice, and speciation.

Integrative and comparative biology - 1 Sept 2011

Puebla O, Bermingham E, Guichard F

Abstract excerpt

Matching was developed in the 1960s to match such entities as residents and hospitals, colleges and students, or employers and employees. This approach is based on "preference lists," whereby each participant ranks potential partners according to his/her preferences and tries to match with the highest-ranking partner available. Here, we discuss the implications of matching for the study of mate choice and...
