Background: Despite its important implications in behavioural and evolutionary ecology, male mate choice has been poorly studied, and the relative contribution of personality and morphological traits remains largely unkno...
Repeatability of endocrine traits and dominance rank in female guinea pigs [0.03%]

Taylor L Rystrom et al.
Background: Glucocorticoids (e.g. cortisol) are associated with variation in social behavior, and previous studies have linked baseline as well as challenge-induced glucocorticoid concentrations to dominance status. It is...
Pollinating fig wasps' simple solutions to complex sex ratio problems: a review [0.03%]

Local mate competition (LMC) favours female biased clutch sex ratios because it reduces competition between brothers and provides extra mating opportunities for sons. Fig wasps seem to fit LMC model assumptions and lay female-biased sex rat...
