• Glucocorticoid-Mediated Phenotypes in Vertebrates : Multilevel Variation and Evolution (2016, background): “Furthermore, in future studies on GC-fitness relationships multilevel thinking is necessary rather than focusing on one behavioral or hormonal axis of an organism (Careau, Gifford, & Biro, 2014; Miles et al., 2007).”
• Sexual selection on locomotor performance (2008, background): “Hormone manipulations are undesirable, as they typically entail too many other phenotypic changes due to pleiotropy, preventing a clear test of the fitness effects of only increased performance (Miles et al., 2007).”
• Plumage color and reproduction in the red-backed fairy-wren: Why be a dull breeder? (2008, background): “An early and popular hypothesis was that such alternatives are maintained within a population by frequency-dependent selection and have approximately equal fitness at equilibrium, but the paucity of examples suggests that this may be an unlikely explanation in most cases (but see Miles et al. 2007 ”
• Life history and the ecology of stress: how do glucocorticoid hormones influence life‐history variation in animals? (2013, background): “…between circulating GCs or HPA reactivity and survival in mammals (e.g. Cabezas et al. 2007) and reptiles (Romero & Wikelski 2001; Cote et al. 2006; Miles et al. 2007), several studies document no or negative relationships between GC levels and survival, or even conflicting relationships within…”
• Unravelling complex associations between testosterone and parasite infection in the wild (2012, background): “In male vertebrates, androgens, particularly testosterone, play a central role in shaping behavioural, morphological and physiological variation associated with alternative mating tactics, social status, dominance and ultimately reproductive success (Miles et al. 2007).”
