The effect of variation in boldness and aggressiveness on the reproductive success of zebrafish (2012, background): “Given that zebrafish are batch spawners, in the presence of a male all mature ova may be released during a single spawning period (Eaton & Farley 1974; Spence & Smith 2006), and so females may have little control over this.”
Sneaking from a female perspective (2007, background): “Consequently, female choice may not discriminate between dominant and subordinate males (Kangas & Lindström 2001; Spence & Smith 2006), or females may consistently prefer mating with subordinates (Ophir & Galef 2003).”
The behaviour and ecology of the zebrafish, Danio rerio (2007, background): “…2004), involving competition among both males and females (Spence & Smith, 2005; Gerlach, 2006), as well as preference for mates (Pyron, 2003; Gerlach & Lysiak, 2006; Spence & Smith, 2006), spawning substratum (Spence et al., 2007a), and water depth (C. Lawrence & A. Sessa, personal observations).”
The husbandry of zebrafish (Danio rerio): A review (2007, background): “Females exert mate choice (Spence and Smith, 2006a) that may be linked to olfactory cues (Gerlach, 2006).”
Guidance on the housing and care of zebrafish Danio rerio. (2011, unknown): “Indeed, the female preference may be overridden as dominant males do not allow the females to access other males (Spence & Smith 2006).”
