Abstract: Developmental plasticity can alter the expression of sexual signals in novel environments and is therefore thought to play an important role in promoting divergence. Sexual signals, however, are often multimodal and mate choice multivariate. Hence,… read more here.

Abstract: Multimodal signaling is nearly ubiquitous across animal taxa. While much research has focused on male signal production contributing to female mate-choice or preferences, females often give their own multimodal signals during intersexual communication events. Multimodal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0280728
Abstract: In this study we aimed to examine whether the ‘redundancy’ (a backup function to ensure the signal transmission) or ‘multiple messages’ (sensory communication system in combination) hypothesis would explain the function of multimodal communication of… read more here.
