Diversity and flexibility of sex-change strategies in animals.

Here, we review recent empirical advances that have improved our understanding of why and when sex change occurs. We show that sex-changing animals use a greater diversity of strategies to increase their reproductive success than was previously recognized: some individuals change sex early, others change sex late, some individuals change sex more than once, and others do not change sex at all. ...

Adult sex ratio variation: implications for breeding system evolution.

Adult sex ratio (ASR) exhibits immense variation in nature, although neither the causes nor the implications of this variation are fully understood. According to theory, the ASR is expected to influence sex roles and breeding systems, as the rarer sex in the population has more potential partners to mate with than the more common sex. Changes in mate choice, mating systems and parental care sug...

Sex ratio under the haystack model.

This paper investigates the evolution of the sex ratio under an extension of the haystack model of Maynard Smith (1964). At the beginning of each season a stack is colonized by a number of fertilized females, and their offspring breed there for several generations until new haystacks are available for colonization. We intend this as a model for populations which undergo periodical population ex...

Methods of Embryo Sexing in Cattle Breeding: A Review

Different livestock sectors as beef industries get benefit from the production of male animals while dairy industries get benefit from the milk production by the female animals. Therefore, it is obvious need to produce the animals of desired sex which can be achieved by predetermining the sex of conceptus at the time of conception i.e. pre determination of sex may be of great economic importanc...

Colony sex ratios in the facultatively polygynous ant Pheidole pallidula: a reanalysis with new data.

A recent study by Fournier et al. (2003) provides important new information on sex allocation in the ant Pheidole pallidula, and proposes a new scenario for sex-ratio evolution in P. pallidula and similar species. However, Helms proposed to the authors that two important conclusions of the study were questionable because of potential problems with the analyses. Here we provide new data and a re...
