Predation drives complex eco-evolutionary dynamics in sexually selected traits.

PLoS biology - 1 Apr 2023

Lerch Brian A, Servedio Maria R

Abstract excerpt

Predation plays a role in preventing the evolution of ever more complicated sexual displays, because such displays often increase an individual's predation risk. Sexual selection theory, however, omits a key feature of predation in modeling costs to sexually selected traits: Predation is density dependent. As a result of this density dependence, predator-prey dynamics should feed back into the evolution of sexual...
