• Lonely hearts or sex in the city? Density-dependent effects in mating systems (2006, background): “In vertebrate mating systems, increased efficiency of mate guarding is generally not expected to fully compensate if female tendencies for infidelity change (Kokko & Morrell 2005).”
• Personality is associated with extrapair paternity in great tits, Parus major (2008, unknown): “Given that attractive males are expected to do less mate guarding, because they have more chance to get EPP elsewhere (Kokko & Morrell 2005), fast males might thus be more likely to lose paternity, but might also gain more by cuckolding.”
