DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9208
Abstract: Abstract Male mating strategies respond to female availability such that variation in resources that affect spatial distribution can also alter cost–benefit tradeoffs within a population. In arid‐adapted species, rainfall alters reproduction, behavior, morphology, and population… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9965
Abstract: Abstract The coexistence of distinct alternative mating strategies (AMS) is often explained by mechanisms involving trade‐offs between reproductive traits and lifetime fitness; yet their relative importance remains poorly understood. Here, we used an established individual‐based,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1751731116001786
Abstract: We tested the hypothesis that mating strategies with genomic information realise lower rates of inbreeding (∆F) than with pedigree information without compromising rates of genetic gain (∆G). We used stochastic simulation to compare ∆F and… read more here.

Pair bonds, reproductive success, and rise of alternate mating strategies in a social carnivore

DOI: 10.1093/beheco/arz126
Abstract: Monogamy is commonly observed across a wide variety of species and taxa and arises when young are altricial, parental investment in young is high, and mate monopolization is generally not possible. In such species, pairs… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/14747049221111738
Abstract: Exposure to environmental cues reflecting potential threats to future survivability is associated with a stronger endorsement of short-term mating strategies. Less is known, however, about the effects of safety and security cues. In four studies,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.800981
Abstract: Botryosphaeriaceae, as a major family of the largest class of kingdom fungi Dothideomycetes, encompasses phytopathogens, saprobes, and endophytes. Many members of this family are opportunistic phytopathogens with a wide host range and worldwide geographical distribution,… read more here.
