A genetic evaluation of mating system and determinants of individual reproductive success in atlantic salmon
Article Abstract:
Research into the mating and reproductive success of Atlantic salmon is presented. Highly polymorphic microsatellite loci was used in estimations and it was concluded that mating among the species is more flexible than traditionally-believed.

The evolution of alternative reproductive strategies: Fitness differential, heritability, and genetic correlation between the sexes
Article Abstract:
Five alternative mating strategies among side-blotched lizards (Uta stansburiana) are examined, including the heritability of each strategy, morph fitness, and strategy links between the sexes.
