However, the evolution of SC in spiders is still not fully understood. We review key hypotheses for SC and explore how female‐initiated SC has driven the evolution of various male counter‐adaptations to mitigate its ...

Diseases are important determinants of bird survival and may spill‐over into other species including livestock and, in some cases, humans. Avian pox is a globally distributed disease, resulting from infection by viruses in the genus Avipoxvirus (APV).
