Sex‐biased dispersal: A review of the theory

XY Li, H Kokko - Biological Reviews, 2019‏ - Wiley Online Library

Advances in our understanding of mammalian sex‐biased dispersal

LJ Lawson Handley, N Perrin - Molecular ecology, 2007‏ - Wiley Online Library
Sex‐biased dispersal is an almost ubiquitous feature of mammalian life history, but the
evolutionary causes behind these patterns still require much clarification. A quarter of a …

Delayed dispersal as a route to breeding: territorial inheritance, safe havens, and ecological constraints

H Kokko, J Ekman - The American Naturalist, 2002‏ - journals.uchicago.edu

Kin recognition and inbreeding avoidance in zebrafish, Danio rerio, is based on phenotype matching

G Gerlach, N Lysiak - Animal Behaviour, 2006‏ - Elsevier
Differentiating kin from nonkin enables organisms of many species to allocate resources or
altruistic behaviour towards related conspecifics and to avoid mating with close relatives. Kin …
