Structure of Social Networks in a Passerine Bird: Consequences for Sexual Selection and the Evolution of Mating Strategies
Kevin P. Oh,Alexander V. Badyaev +1 more
TL;DR: Network analysis is used to examine patterns of male social behavior in relation to plumage ornamentation and mating success in a free‐living population of house finches and concludes that males that frequently moved between social groups had greater pairing success than less social individuals with equivalent sexual ornamentation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution on a local scale: developmental, functional, and genetic bases of divergence in bill form and associated changes in song structure between adjacent habitats.
TL;DR: The results suggest that divergent selection on function and development of traits involved in production of mating signals, in combination with localized learning of such signals, can be very effective at maintaining local adaptations, even at small spatial scales and in highly mobile animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptive genetic complementarity in mate choice coexists with selection for elaborate sexual traits
Kevin P. Oh,Alexander V. Badyaev +1 more
TL;DR: Across 10 breeding seasons in a wild bird population, strong fitness benefits of matings between genetically unrelated partners are found and it is shown that self-referential choice of genetically unrelated mates alternates with sexual selection on elaborate plumage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic Biocontrol for Invasive Species
John L. Teem,Luke Alphey,Sarah Descamps,Matthew P. Edgington,Owain R. Edwards,Neil J. Gemmell,Tim Harvey-Samuel,Rachel L. Melnick,Kevin P. Oh,Antoinette J. Piaggio,J. Royden Saah,Dan Schill,Paul Q. Thomas,Trevor Smith,Andrew Roberts +14 more
TL;DR: An overview of the state of genetic biocontrol for invasive species is provided, focusing on several approaches that were the subject of presentations at the Genetic Biocontroll for Invasive Species Workshop in Tarragona, Spain, March 31st, 2019.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sex-biased maternal effects reduce ectoparasite-induced mortality in a passerine bird
TL;DR: Strong maternal effects can account for frequently observed, but theoretically unexpected, concordance of mortality risks and growth patterns, especially under fluctuating ecological conditions.
