The lek paradox and the capture of genetic variance by condition dependent traits
Locke Rowe,David Houle +1 more
TL;DR: This paper offers a resolution to the lek paradox and rests on only two assumptions; condition dependence of sexually selected traits and high genetic variance in condition, which lead inevitably to the capture of genetic variance into sexually selected trait concomitantly with the evolution of condition dependence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size and Timing of Metamorphosis in Complex Life Cycles: Time Constraints and Variation
Locke Rowe,Donald Ludwig +1 more
TL;DR: This work extends earlier theory to include explicit time constraints in three, hypothetical, complex life cycles to lead to optimal sizes for niche shifts that vary with time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response to Eberhard and Cordero, and Córdoba-Aguilar and Contreras-Garduño: sexual conflict and female choice
TL;DR: Response to Eberhard and Cordero, and Cordoba-Aguilar and Contreras-Garduno: sexual conflict and female choice
Journal ArticleDOI
Antagonistic coevolution between the sexes in a group of insects
Göran Arnqvist,Locke Rowe +1 more
TL;DR: Assessing the independent effects of both species-specific level of arms escalation and small imbalances in the amounts of arms between the sexes within species shows evolutionary change in the outcome of sexually antagonistic interactions such as mating rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sexual conflict and the evolutionary ecology of mating patterns: water striders as a model system
TL;DR: Two core ideas in the study of mating systems and sexual selection are the existence of a conflict between the sexes over mating decisions and that variation in ecological conditions drives the evolution of adaptive mating strategies and the diversification of mating system.
