Pre- and postcopulatory sexual selection favor aggressive, young males in polyandrous groups of red junglefowl
A challenge in evolutionary biology is to understand the operation of sexual selection on males in polyandrous groups, where sexual selection occurs before and after mating. Here, we combine fine-grained behavioural information (>41,000 interactions) with molecular parentage data to study sex...
