[HTML][HTML] Individual interaction data are required in community ecology: a conceptual review of the predator–prey mass ratio and more
T Nakazawa - Ecological Research, 2017 - Springer
Community ecology is traditionally species-based and assumes that species comprise
identical individuals. However, intraspecific variation is ubiquitous in nature because of …

Hormonally mediated increases in sex-biased gene expression accompany the breakdown of between-sex genetic correlations in a sexually dimorphic lizard
The evolution of sexual dimorphism is predicted to occur through reductions in between-sex
genetic correlations (r mf) for shared traits, but the physiological and genetic mechanisms …

Sex‐specific growth in chicks of the sexually dimorphic black‐tailed godwit
Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) is common in birds and has been linked to various selective
forces. Nevertheless, the question of how and when the sexes start to differentiate from each …

Subadult sex estimation and KidStats
Subadult sex estimation is routinely advised against, as most researchers believe there are
not sufficient differences between the subadult male and female skeletons. This chapter …

[HTML][HTML] Phenotypic integration mediated by hormones: associations among digit ratios, body size and testosterone during tadpole development
Background Developmental associations often explain phenotypic integration. The

The effects of competition on fitness depend on the sex of both competitors
M Iglesias‐Carrasco, S Brookes… - Ecology and …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
In intraspecific competition, the sex of competing individuals is likely to be important in

Is there a sicker sex? Dose relationships modify male–female differences in infection prevalence
NJ Butterworth, L Heffernan… - Proceedings of the …, 2024 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Throughout the animal kingdom, there are striking differences in the propensity of one sex or
the other to become infected. However, precisely when we should expect males or females …

Why sex matters in phenological research
Males and females often desynchronise their mating activity during the breeding season
(intersexual phenological asynchrony). This suggests that the two sexes differentially use …

Sex-specific phenotypes and metabolism-related gene expression in juvenile sticklebacks
To fully understand the evolution of sexual dimorphism, it is necessary to study how genetic
and developmental systems function to generate sex-specific phenotype as well as sex …

Ecophysiological determinants of sexual size dimorphism: integrating growth trajectories, environmental conditions, and metabolic rates
Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) often results in dramatic differences in body size between
females and males. Despite its ecological importance, little is known about the relationship …
