Because swordlessness is the ancestral state of the Xiphophorus clade, Basolo argues that the results of her experiment indicate that female preference for swords predates the evolution of the sword and concludes that coevolutionary models of sexual selection are inadequate. Basolo provides no direct evidence in support of a preexisting female sensory bias, but rejects t...

متن کاملFemale mate preferences for male body size and shape promote sexual isolation in threespine sticklebacks
Female mate preferences for ecologically relevant traits may enhance natural selection, leading to rapid divergence. They may also forge a link between mate choice within species and sexual isolation between species. Here, we examine female mate preference for two ecologically important traits: body size and body shape. We measured female preferences within and between species of benthic, limne...
