The limits of sexual conflict in the narrow sense: new insights from waterfowl biology.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 19 Aug 2012

Brennan Patricia L R, Prum Richard O

Abstract excerpt

Sexual conflict occurs when the evolutionary interests of the sexes differ and it broadly applies to decisions over mating, fertilization and parental investment. Recently, a narrower view of sexual conflict has emerged in which direct selection on females to avoid male-imposed costs during mating is considered the distinguishing feature of conflict, while indirect selection is considered negligible. In this...
