Disassortative mating, sexual specialization, and the evolution of gender dimorphism in heterodichogamous Acer opalus.
In sexually polymorphic species, the morphs are maintained by frequency-dependent selection through disassortative mating. In heterodichogamous populations in which disassortative mating occurs between the protandrous and protogynous morphs, a decrease in female fitness in one morph is hypothesized...
