Selection for Male Weapons Boosts Female Fecundity, Eliminating Sexual Conflict in the Bulb Mite
Extreme differences between the sexes are usually explained by intense sexual selection on male weapons or ornaments. Sexually antagonistic genes, with a positive effect on male traits but a negative effect on female fitness, create a negative inter-sexual correlation for fitness (sexual conflict)....
