SIGNAL RELIABILITY COMPROMISED BY GENOTYPE-BY-ENVIRONMENT INTERACTION AND POTENTIAL MECHANISMS FOR ITS PRESERVATION

Sexual selection based on signaling requires that signals used by females in mate choice are reliable indicators of a male's heritable total fitness. A signal and the preference for it are expected to be heritable, resulting in the maintenance of genetic covariance between these two traits. How...
