Male–Male Strategies
Original language description
Male–male competition is a powerful mechanism of sexual selection that takes many different forms but is selected to secure access either directly to females (or their gametes) or to breeding resources critical for reproduction. It may be independent of female choice and postcopulatory processes, but often acts either in concert or inopposition to female choice. Interference competition involves direct physical or signaling contests between males, with development of weapons and expression of signals being constrained by direct and indirect costs associated with their possession. Other forms of male–male competition include scramble competition fornaccess to females, lekking, mate guarding, and alternative mating behaviors (e.g., sneak copulations or mimicking females) that circumvent direct contest with stronger males. Endurance is an important, but frequently neglected, aspect of male–male competition and recognizes that male success integrates over his lifetime. Male–male competition can extend beyond fertilization, and males may adjust the level of their parental care to perceived paternity.
