Neglected biological patterns in the residuals (2011, background): “Such sexspecific variation will play an important role in the evolution of sexual dimorphism (Badyaev 2002).”
Effects of prenatal yolk androgens on armaments and ornaments of the ring-necked pheasant (2006, unknown): “For example, in vertebrates, secretion of the growth hormone (GH, a major factor in somatic growth modulation) by the pituitary ultimately depends on gonadal hormones via their effect on the release of hypothalamic factors (see discussion in Badyaev 2002).”
Effects of elevated yolk testosterone levels on survival, growth and immunity of male and female yellow-legged gull chicks (2005, unknown): “For example, early exposure to steroids can influence growth hormone (GH)-dependent growth in the two sexes (see Badyaev 2002 for a discussion).”
Growth rates in a wild primate population: ecological influences and maternal effects (2005, background): “Kirkpatrick and Heckman 1989; Kirkpatrick et al. 1990; Arnold 1992; Pereira 1995; Cornillon et al. 2000; Badyaev 2002; Pereira and Leigh 2003).”
Potential causes and life-history consequences of sexual size dimorphism in mammals (2005, background): “Badyaev (2002) has stressed that we cannot continue to ignore the developmental aspects that are clearly integral to the ultimate mechanisms underlying the evolution of SSD and information concerning growth patterns and processes is essential for our understanding of dimorphism in mammals.”
AVIAN SEXUAL DICHROMATISM IN RELATION TO PHYLOGENY AND ECOLOGY (2003, background): “…coloration (Badyaev & Hill 2000, Gray 1996, Hill 1996), compared to sexual dimorphism in body size and in complex patterns of coloration that may be more developmentally integrated and thus less labile phylogenetically (Badyaev 2002, Price 2002, Price & Pavelka 1996, Omland & Lanyon 2000).”
Evaluating performance costs of sexually selected traits (2007, background): “Male and female size are likely to be strongly positively genetically correlated within populations (see review by Badyaev 2002), which should tend to inhibit sexual divergence in body size (Lande 1980), but both empirical and theoretical studies suggest that this will not always be a strong…”
Sexual size dimorphism within species increases with body size in insects (2005, background): “Yet, plasticity in growth patterns underlying within-species variation in SSD remains still rather poorly understood (Badyaev 2002).”
Achieving high sexual size dimorphism in insects: females add instars (2007, background): “Developmental constraints may therefore play an important role in forming the patterns of SSD ( Maynard Smith et al. , 1985; Schluter et al. , 1991; Badyaev, 2002 ).”
Larval instar as a key element of insect growth schedules (2006, background): “Moreover, most studies focus on sexual size differences in adult stage while aspects of juvenile development are often ignored (Badyaev et al. 2001, Badyaev 2002).”
Geographic variation in body size, sexual size dimorphism and fitness components of a seed beetle: local adaptation versus phenotypic plasticity (2009, background): “…hypotheses have been proposed to explain sex differences in plasticity of body size (Fairbairn 2005, Teder and Tammaru 2005, Stillwell and Fox 2007), but how the sexes achieve such diverging growth trajectories even though they share the same genome remains unknown (Badyaev 2002, Rhen 2007).”
Lifetime reproductive success in relation to morphology in the house sparrow Passer domesticus (2004, background): “…more sensitive to environmental conditions during the juvenile period (see e.g. Clutton-Brock et al. 1985; Sheldon et al. 1998; Lindström 1999; Badyaev 2002), the observed relationship between parental quality and production of daughters may arise without the need to invoke differential…”
Maternal allocation of androgens and antagonistic effects of yolk androgens on sons and daughters (2006, unknown): “Exposure to steroids already during early ontogeny can influence GH-dependent growth in the two sexes by diverse mechanisms ( Badyaev, 2002 ).”
Intralocus Sexual Conflict (2009, background): “From the observations that genomewide sexually antagonistic variation is prevalent, one would naively expect this process to be severely constrained, but the evolution of sexual dimorphism is a biologically widespread phenomenon (Badyaev 2002).”
