Sex ratios under asymmetrical local mate competition in the parasitoid wasp Nasonia vitripennis
Sex ratio theory has proved remarkably useful in testing the adaptive nature of animal behavior. A particularly productive area in this respect is Hamilton's theory of local mate competition (LMC), which has been extended in numerous directions to include greater biological realism, allowing mo...
