Abstract: The mate choice behaviors of females can greatly affect patterns of reproductive success in males and influence the evolution of sexually selected male traits. Population-level estimates of display preferences may provide an accurate estimate of… read more here.

Abstract: The evolutionary consequences of temporal variation in selection remain hotly debated. We explored these consequences by studying threespine stickleback in a set of bar‐built estuaries along the central California coast. In most years, heavy rains… read more here.

Within‐population variation in female mating preference affects the opportunity for sexual selection and the evolution of male traits, but things are not as simple as expected

DOI: 10.1111/jeb.13694
Abstract: Females from the same population usually have phenotypic variation in their mating preferences. However, the effects of this within‐population variation on the sexual selection acting on males are still unclear. We used individual‐based models to… read more here.
