Sexual conflict occurs when selection acts in opposing directions on males and females.
Case studies in both vertebrates and invertebrates indicate that sexual conflict maintains …

As the evolutionary interests of males and females are frequently divergent, a trait value that
is optimal for the fitness of one sex is often not optimal for the other. A shared genome also …

Although sex chromosomes have evolved from autosomes, they often have unusual
regulatory regimes that are sex-and cell-type-specific such as dosage compensation (DC) …

The evolution of sexual dimorphism is constrained by a shared genome, leading to 'sexual
antagonism', in which different alleles at given loci are favoured by selection in males and …

How common is balancing selection, and what fraction of phenotypic variance is attributable
to balanced polymorphisms? Despite decades of research, answers to these questions …

Sexually antagonistic (SA) genetic variation—in which alleles favored in one sex are
disfavored in the other—is predicted to be common and has been documented in several …

The ability to reproduce is the key trait that distinguishes living organisms from inorganic
matter, and the strategies used to achieve successful reproduction are almost as diverse as …

Females and males carry nearly identical genomes, which can constrain the evolution of
sexual dimorphism and generate conditions that are favourable for maintaining sexually …

The study of sexual dimorphism in Anolis lizards brings the opportunity to understand how
this phenomena interacts with adaptive radiation to produce broader diversity. We explored …

Sex differences in the fitness effects of genetic variants can influence the rate of adaptation
and the maintenance of genetic variation. For example,“sexually antagonistic”(SA) variants …
