Sexual selection by male choice in monogamous and polygynous human populations.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Feb 1999

Ihara Y, Aoki K

Abstract excerpt

The theoretical possibility of coevolution of a viability-reducing female physical trait and a male mating preference for that trait by Fisherian sexual selection in monogamous and polygynous populations is demonstrated using two-locus haploid models. It is assumed that there is dichotomous variation in male resources, resource-rich males have a wider choice among females than resource-poor males, and a female...
