The evolutionary genetics of paternal care: How good genes and extrapair copulation affect the trade‐off between paternal care and mating success

We investigate the evolution of a gene for paternal care, with pleiotropic effects on male mating fitness and offspring viability, with and without extrapair copulations (EPCs). We develop a population genetic model to examine how pleiotropic effects of a male mating advantage and paternal care are...
