Host size matters for reproduction: Evolution of spawning preference and female reproductive phenotypes in mussel‐symbiotic freshwater bitterling fishes
Abstract Bitterling fishes evolve an idiosyncratic symbiosis with freshwater mussels, in which they are obligated to spawn in the gills of mussels for reproduction. In recent years, freshwater mussel populations have been drastically diminishing, due to accelerating anthropogenic impacts, which can...
