DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3631
Abstract: Abstract Sexual conflict over mating rate is both pervasive and evolutionarily costly. For females, the lifetime reproductive fitness costs that arise through interactions with potential mates will be influenced by the frequency of such interactions,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6657
Abstract: Abstract During male–male competition, evolution can favor alternative reproductive tactics. This often results in a dominant morph that holds a resource, such as a nest for egg laying, which competes with a smaller sneaker morph… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2020.105750
Abstract: The interpopulation variation in life history traits of a species reflects evolutionary adaptation in response to a local environment regime. We examined the life history traits of Aedes aegypti populations from 2 cities in southern… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/srep43552
Abstract: Alternative mating tactics have important ecological and evolutionary implications and are determined by complex interactions between environmental and genetic factors. Here, we study the genetic effect and architecture of the variability in reproductive tactics among… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jmammal/gyaa058
Abstract: Individuals of either sex may display alternative behaviors to obtain copulations, but few studies have examined the breeding patterns of females and males in populations where individuals of both sexes exhibit alternative reproductive tactics (ARTs).… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/eva.13438
Abstract: In species with alternative reproductive tactics, there is much empirical support that parasitically spawning males have larger testes and greater sperm numbers as an evolved response to a higher degree of sperm competition, but support… read more here.
