Indirect fitness benefits are not related to male dominance in a killifish

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Recent theoretical and empirical studies have shown that male dominance is often at odds with female mate preference and that indirect (genetic) benefits of mate choice may not be related to male dominance. We tested whether female preference corresponded to male dominance and whether mating with dominant males conveyed benefits to offspring fitness in a small freshwater fish, the African annual killifish Nothobranchius korthausae. We found that female N. korthausae showed no mate preference in terms ofegg numbers deposited with respect to male dominance or body size and no congruent mate preference to specific males was detected. However, males sired offspring with consistently higher hatching success and the effect was repeatable across individual females. Thus, some males provided females with indirect benefits related to additive genetic quality ("good genes") and expressed via increased hatching rate, but this benefit was not related to male dominance status or body size.
