Variation in promiscuity and sexual selection drives avian rate of Faster‐Z evolution
Higher rates of coding sequence evolution have been observed on the Z chromosome relative to the autosomes across a wide range of species. However, despite a considerable body of theory, we lack empirical evidence explaining variation in the strength of the Faster‐Z Effect. To assess the magnitude a...
