Polymorphic signals of harassed female odonates and the males that learn them support a novel frequency-dependent model (2004, background): “Others (Cordero Rivera & Andrés 2001; Andrés et al. 2002) have overlooked the fact that a bias towards the majority morph in a preference test would be expected only if morph frequencies as measured in the field were indicative of the tested male’s actual experience with females.”
Alternative reproductive tactics and life history phenotypes (2010, background): “In addition to population density, operational sex ratio may also influence tactic choice (Forchhammer and Boomsma 1998, Zamudio and Chan 2008) and the response to frequencydependent selection (Andrés et al. 2002).”
Hybridization and the inheritance of female colour polymorphism in two ischnurid damselflies (Odonata: Coenagrionidae) (2005, background): “Recent studies on the maintenance of female polymorphism in odonates underlie a relationship between population density and morph frequency, and morph-specific fitness correlates (Cordero Rivera & Egido Pérez, 1998; Sirot & Brockmann, 2001; Andrés et al., 2002; Sirot et al., 2003).”
