(2008, background): “…of auxiliary helpers may reduce constraints on females, and possibly also fitness consequences for males, which may explain why the presence of helpers appears to affect EPP rates in some species of fairy-wren (Mulder et al�� 1994, Webster et al�� 2004)�� Finally, experimental approaches can…”
