Positive genetic covariance between male sexual ornamentation and fertilizing capacity.

Current biology : CB - 12 Apr 2021

Polak Michal, Hurtado-Gonzales Jorge L, Benoit Joshua B, Hooker Kassie J, Tyler Frances

Abstract excerpt

Postcopulatory sexual selection results from variation in competitive fertilization success among males and comprises powerful evolutionary forces that operate after the onset of mating.1,2 Theoretical advances in the field of sexual selection addressing the buildup and coevolutionary consequences of genetic coupling3-5 motivate the hypothesis that indirect postcopulatory sexual selection may promote evolution of...
