Female preferences, paternity and fitness: A combined morphometric/molecular genetic study on Poecilia latipinna and Poecilia formosa

open access: yes, 2015
Mate preferences represent an adaptive choice when costs associated with reproduction can be alleviated through gaining direct or indirect benefits from choosing the better mate. Female poeciliid fishes do show clear mate preferences for certain males although males in this highly promiscuous taxon only contribute sperm to reproduction.

Isolation of a cancer-associated microchromosome in the sperm-dependent parthenogen Poecilia formosa.

open access: yesCytogenetic and genome research, 2011
In the asexual all-female fish species Poecilia formosa, the Amazon molly, supernumerary chromosomes have frequently been found in both laboratory-reared and wild-caught individuals. While wild-caught individuals with B chromosomes are phenotypically indifferent from conspecifics, individuals carrying B chromosomes from recent introgression events in ...

Pronounced reproductive skew in a natural population of green swordtails, Xiphophorus helleri. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
For many species in nature, a sire's progeny may be distributed among a few or many dams. This poses logistical challenges--typically much greater across males than across females--for assessing means and variances in mating success (number of mates) and
