DOI: 10.1002/ajpa.23447
Abstract: OBJECTIVES Accurate sex estimation is an essential step for the reconstruction of the biological profile of human remains. Earlier studies have shown that elements of the human permanent dentition are sexually dimorphic. The aims of… read more here.

Geranium sylvaticum increases pollination probability by sexually dimorphic flowers

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9670
Abstract: Abstract Sexual dimorphism is expressed as different morphologies between the sexes of a species. Dimorphism is pronounced in gynodioecious populations which consist of female and hermaphrodite individuals. The small size of female flowers in gynodioecious… read more here.

Sexual dimorphism as a facilitator of worker caste evolution in ants

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9825
Abstract: Abstract Ant societies are primarily composed of females, whereby labor is divided into reproductive, or queen, and nonâreproductive, or worker, castes. Workers and reproductive queens can differ greatly in behavior, longevity, physiology, and morphology, but… read more here.

The Role of Sexual Dimorphism and Tissue Selection in Ecotoxicological Studies Using the Riparian Spider Tetragnatha elongata

DOI: 10.1007/s00128-019-02632-y
Abstract: Tetragnathid spiders (Tetragnatha spp.) found in riparian habitats have recently been used as bioindicators of sediment contamination and insect-mediated contaminant flux. We investigated whether sexual dimorphism (size and behavior) influenced the female:male ratio in composite… read more here.

Within-population variation in the chemistry of life: the stoichiometry of sexual dimorphism in multiple dimensions

DOI: 10.1007/s10682-017-9900-9
Abstract: In sexual species, phenotypic divergence between males and females, or sexual dimorphism, is often the source of the most staggering examples of phenotypic variation in nature. Theory suggests that exaggerated sexual traits should drive sex-specific… read more here.

Genes for sexual body size dimorphism in hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis sp. x Oreochromis mossambicus)

DOI: 10.1016/j.aaf.2019.05.003
Abstract: Abstract Tilapias are important aquaculture species. Male-biased sexual size dimorphism is very common and males are preferred for aquaculture in tilapia. However, the mechanisms underlying sexual dimorphism remain to be elucidated. One hundred and thirty-six… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.envexpbot.2017.12.006
Abstract: Sexual dimorphism in secondary traits (differences between the sexes in characteristics others than the sexual organs) is widespread in plants (Geber et al., 1999 ; Barrett and Hough, 2013). Sex differences in ecological, morphological and… read more here.

Gender dimorphism in Corema album across its biogeographical area and implications under a scenario of extreme drought events

DOI: 10.1016/j.envexpbot.2018.08.011
Abstract: Abstract In dioecious species, traits may have evolved because of significantly different resource demands associated with male versus female sexual reproduction. It is generally assumed that females have higher reproductive costs, thereafter in long-lived species,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.fbr.2017.04.001
Abstract: Abstract Yeast-mycelium fungal dimorphism is a complex trait studied for many years, particularly in pathogenic fungi for which the morphological switch is often associated with virulence. It is a characteristic shared by many species from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2017.08.030
Abstract: microRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate various biological processes, including insect metamorphosis and sexual dimorphism. The fig-pollinating wasp, Ceratosolen solmsi, is a member of the super family Chalcidoidea, which have mutualistic relationships with… read more here.
