Alternative mating strategies in the Wellington tree weta expressed via genetic polymorphism for precocial male maturation
The expression of alternative mating strategies is generally hypothesized to be a plastic response of the genome to the environment or a genetic polymorphism. The Wellington tree weta (Hemideina crassidens) is an orthopteran insect in which males express three alternative mating morphotypes related...
