Individual repeatability and heritability of divorce in a wild population.

Biology letters - 1 Jun 2018

Germain Ryan R, Wolak Matthew E, Reid Jane M

Abstract excerpt

Understanding micro-evolutionary responses of mating systems to contemporary selection requires estimating sex-specific additive genetic variances and cross-sex genetic covariances in key reproductive strategy traits. One key trait comprises the occurrence of divorce versus mate fidelity across sequential reproductive attempts. If divorce represents an evolving behavioural strategy that responds to selection it...
