Life-history differences in age-dependent expressions of multiple ornaments and behaviors in a lekking bird.

The American naturalist - 1 Jan 2015

Kervinen Matti, Lebigre Christophe, Alatalo Rauno V, Siitari Heli, Soulsbury Carl D

Abstract excerpt

Age is a major factor explaining variation in life-history traits among individuals with typical patterns of increasing trait values early in life, maximum trait expression, and senescence. However, age-dependent variation in the expressions of sexually selected traits has received less attention, although such variation underpins differences in male competitive abilities and female preference, which are central...
