• Fundamental Dimensions of Environmental Risk (2009, background): “In fluctuating environments, reproducing with different sexual partners reduces variance in offspring fitness by increasing the probability that at least some offspring will be well-suited to the niche they inhabit (Fox and Rauter 2003; Yasui 2001).”
• Toward a New Sexual Selection Paradigm: Polyandry, Conflict and Incompatibility (Invited Article) (2003, background): “…additiveeffect hypotheses propose that multiple paternity per se represents a bet-hedging strategy that provides a genetic benefit to polyandry by increasing the geometric mean fitness of females in the face of mate choice and/or environmental uncertainties (Watson 1991, 1998; Fox & Rauter 2003).”
