UV wavelengths affect female mate choice in three-spined sticklebacks
Recent behavioural studies on fish have emphasized the role of ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths in mate choice. We performed female mate choice experiments, focusing on the UV wavelength range, with the three-spined stickleback, Gasterosteus aculeatus, a species in which the role of visually guided behaviour in the human-visible wavelength range (400–700 nm) has been well studied. Ripe female stick...
متن کاملParasites and size-assortative schooling in three-spined sticklebacks
Recent field studies carried out in lacustrine environments have suggested that fish schools may be assorted with respect to parasite infections, but the generality and strength of parasite-assortative schooling in fish is unclear. In this study, data are presented on the body size and externally visible macroparasite load of 366 individual three-spined sticklebacks Gasterosteus aculeatus L. (G...
متن کاملPopulation genetic dynamics of three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) in anthropogenic altered habitats
In industrialized and/or agriculturally used landscapes, inhabiting species are exposed to a variety of anthropogenic changes in their environments. Genetic diversity may be reduced if populations encounter founder events, bottlenecks, or isolation. Conversely, genetic diversity may increase if populations adapt to changes in selective regimes in newly created habitats. With the present study, ...
متن کاملThe role of ultraviolet wavelengths in the mate-choice decisions of female three-spined sticklebacks.
Female three-spined sticklebacks have been found to use visual cues when responding sexually towards courting males, often preferring more intensely red-coloured males, and males with blue rather than silver irises. However, traditionally the literature has failed to test preference across the full spectral range to which females might be sensitive, limiting analysis to the human-visible wavele...
متن کاملMale reproductive traits of full-sibs of different age classes in three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus)
The process of ageing is associated with negative effects of mutations acting late in life, which range from those affecting cells to those affecting the whole organism. In many animal taxa, the deterioration of the phenotype with age also affects traits such as males’ primary and secondary sexual characteristics. In three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus), males usually reproduce at...
