Why protogynous hermaphrodite males are relatively larger than females? Testing growth hypotheses in Mediterranean rainbow wrasse Coris julis (Linnaeus, 1758)

Several growth hypotheses have been tested to investigate why males of the sequential hermaphrodite, Mediterranean rainbow wrasse, Coris julis (Linnaeus, 1758), are relatively larger than females of the same age. Individual growth trajectories were estimated to test these hypotheses. A good linear r...
