Toward a New Sexual Selection Paradigm: Polyandry, Conflict and Incompatibility (Invited Article) (2003, background): “In the former category, hypotheses share with classic male competition/mate choice theory an emphasis on the intrinsic, i.e. additive effects of paternal genes on female fitness (Zeh & Zeh 1996, 1997, 2001; Tregenza & Wedell 2000).”
Mate choice or polyandry: reconciling genetic compatibility and good genes sexual selection (2002, background): “…does not require that the genetic quality of some males be intrinsically superior, rather it proposes that male genetic quality depends upon the interaction between male and female genotypes and, as such, is non-additive (Zeh and Zeh, 1996, 1997, 2001; Brown, 1997; Tregenza and Wedell, 2000).”
Determinants of male reproductive success in wild long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis)—male monopolisation, female mate choice or post-copulatory mechanisms? (2006, background): “These potential benefits (reviewed in Wolff and Macdonald 2004) include avoiding inbreeding or genetic incompatibilities (Newcomer et al. 1999; Zeh and Zeh 2001; Tregenza and Wedell 2002), reducing the risk of infanticide through paternity confusion (Hrdy 1979; van Schaik et al.”
Sperm competition in Odonata (Insecta): the evolution of female sperm storage and rivals' sperm displacement (2003, background): “Different sources of evidence suggest this may be the case in some animal species ( Zeh & Zeh, 2001 ).”
Polyandry and fecundity in the Lepidoptera: can methodological and conceptual approaches bias outcomes? (2004, background): “The fitness and evolutionary implications of polyandry have generated a huge amount of experimental and theoretical work to explain the ultimate cause(s) of female remating behaviour (Parker 1970; Walker 1980; Hunter et al. 1993; Boggs 1995; Keller and Reeve 1995; Eberhard 1996; Choe and Crespi 1997”
A hypothesis about the origin of sperm storage in the Eubrachyura, the effects of seminal receptacle structure on mating strategies and the evolution of crab diversity: How did a race to be first become a race to be last? (2011, background): “It is suggested that polyandry is selected for because it increases genetic diversity amongst progeny thereby raising fitness and it is assumed that there are no reliable pre-copulatory cues as to which male is genetically the best (Jennions and Petrie, 2000; Zeh and Zeh, 2001).”
Extra-pair paternity in the monogamous alpine marmot (Marmota marmota): the roles of social setting and female mate choice (2006, background): “However, the pattern and the evolutionary causes of EPP are still under investigation (Jennions and Petrie 2000; Zeh and Zeh 2001; Griffith et al. 2002), especially for mammalian species (Wolff and Macdonald 2004).”
Major histocompatibility complex genes, symmetry, and body scent attractiveness in men and women (2003, background): “This interpretation also applies to what some investigators would label compatible genes (Penn, 2002; Zeh and Zeh, 2001).”
Mate Choice and Genetic Quality: A Review of the Heterozygosity Theory (2007, background): “mother ‘‘creates a postfertilization arena for genomic conflicts’’ (Zeh and Zeh, 2001).”
Assessment of female reproductive status by male longtailed macaques, Macaca fascicularis, under natural conditions (2004, background): “…female strategies for ensuring the best male for paternity (Small 1989), avoiding inbreeding or genetic incompatibilities (Tregenza & Wedell 2002; Newcomer et al. 1999; Zeh & Zeh 2001) or for guaranteeing high quality fertile sperm through sperm competition (Dixson 1998).”
The Evolution of Polyandry: Sperm Competition, Sperm Selection, and Offspring Viability (2005, background): “Nevertheless, female acceptance of matings from more than one male (polyandry) is a taxonomically widespread phenomenon (Jennions & Petrie 2000, Zeh & Zeh 2001).”
Bet-hedging and the evolution of multiple mating (2003, background): “The first examines fitness of females within a single type of environment; genetic bet-hedging can favour the evolution of multiple mating by reducing the probability that all of a female’s eggs are fertilized by a poor-quality or incompatible male (Jennions and Petrie, 2000; Tregenza and Wedell, 20”
