New paper showing indirect benefits of male mate choice!

4/9/2025

 
Our new paper is out today in Evolution! This work was led by our lab technician, Avigayil Lev, and co-authored by lab alum (and current biology staff member) Abigail Gutierrez and undergrad Aanya Srinivasan. Although male mate choice is typically thought to evolve because of the direct fitness benefits that males receive from being choosy (in the form of more offspring sired), we show that male mate choice can also confer ​indirect fitness benefits (in the form of more successful daughters) that reinforce these direct benefits. 
Check out Barnard's coverage of this work here.
