Multivariate Sexual Selection on Ejaculate Traits under Sperm Competition.

The American naturalist - 1 Jul 2018

Lymbery Rowan A, Kennington W Jason, Evans Jonathan P

Abstract excerpt

The widespread prevalence of sperm competition means that ejaculates face intense sexual selection. However, prior investigations of sexual selection on gametes have been hampered by two difficulties: (1) deriving estimates of relative fitness from sperm competition trials that are comparable across rival male and female genotypes and (2) obtaining measures of competitive fertilization success that are not...
