Direct versus indirect sexual selection: genetic basis of colour, size and recruitment in a wild bird.
Indirect and direct models of sexual selection make different predictions regarding the quantitative genetic relationships between sexual ornaments and fitness. Indirect models predict that ornaments should have a high heritability and that strong positive genetic covariance should exist between fit...
