• Factors predicting male fertilization success in an external fertilizer (2008, background): “If spawning coloration signals the fertilization efficiency of a male’s sperm independent of velocity, redder males have less efficient sperm than paler males, exactly the opposite of what is predicted by recent suggestions (Blount et al. 2001; Folstad and Skarstein 1997; Hillgarth et al. 1997).”
• Sexual colouration and sperm traits in guppies (2007, background): “, 2005b) because it offers one explanation, based on direct rather than indirect selection (Neff & Pitcher, 2005), for the maintenance of female preference for male ornaments in non-resource based mating systems (Sheldon, 1994; Blount et al., 2001).”
