Summary of Guest Lecture

Understanding the breeding ecology is critical in determining the factors (both extrinsic and intrinsic) that control reproduction including reproductive behavior. Sexual selection is an important component of reproductive behaviour. Sexual selection was devised by Charles Darwin to specifically explain the evolution of certain traits within a species that accrue fitness in exclusive relation to reproduction. Sexual selection has two components: intrasexual selection generally referred to as male-male competition and intersexual selection often referred to as female choice. In some species male-male competition can be a dominant mode of sexual selection while in others, female choice. However, these two are not mutually exclusive as switch-over between the two modes has been observed.
