The role of genotype‐by‐environment interactions in sexual selection

FC Ingleby, J Hunt, DJ Hosken - Journal of evolutionary biology, 2010 - academic.oup.com
Genotype‐by‐environment interactions (GxEs) in naturally selected traits have been
extensively studied, but the impact of GxEs on sexual selection has only recently begun to …

The genetic basis of sexually selected variation

SF Chenoweth, K McGuigan - Annual Review of Ecology …, 2010 - annualreviews.org
Sexually selected traits contribute greatly to phenotypic diversity, yet we have historically
understood little about their genetic basis and how that basis may affect their evolution …

The evolution of phenotypic plasticity in response to anthropogenic disturbance

E Crispo, JD DiBattista, C Correa, X Thibert-Plante… - 2010 - escholarship.mcgill.ca

A Sexual Ornament in Chickens Is Affected by Pleiotropic Alleles at HAO1 and BMP2, Selected during Domestication

M Johnsson, I Gustafson, CJ Rubin, AS Sahlqvist… - 2012 - journals.plos.org
