Mating systems and sexual selection in male-pregnant pipefishes and seahorses: insights from microsatellite-based studies of maternityA G Jones
Zoology Department, Oregon State University, Corvallis 97331, USA
J Hered 92:150-8. 2001....
Clustered microsatellite mutations in the pipefish Syngnathus typhleA G Jones
Department of Genetics, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602, USA
Genetics 152:1057-63. 1999..They also carry implications for the evolution of microsatellites with respect to mutational models and homoplasy among alleles...
The Bateman gradient and the cause of sexual selection in a sex-role-reversed pipefishA G Jones
Department of Genetics, University of Georgia, Athens 30602, USA
Proc Biol Sci 267:677-80. 2000....
Surprising similarity of sneaking rates and genetic mating patterns in two populations of sand goby experiencing disparate sexual selection regimesA G Jones
Department of Genetics, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602, USA
Mol Ecol 10:461-9. 2001..In this case, the ecological setting appears not to be predictive of alternative male mating strategies, a finding of relevance to sexual selection theory...
How cuckoldry can decrease the opportunity for sexual selection: data and theory from a genetic parentage analysis of the sand goby, Pomatoschistus minutusA G Jones
Department of Genetics, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 98:9151-6. 2001..These results highlight a more complex and interesting relationship between cuckoldry rates and the intensity of sexual selection than previously assumed in much of the literature on animal mating systems...
Genetic evidence for extreme polyandry and extraordinary sex-role reversal in a pipefishA G Jones
Department of Zoology, 3029 Cordley Hall, Oregon State University, Corvallis, OR 97331, USA
Proc Biol Sci 268:2531-5. 2001..Thus, the intensity of sexual selection on females in pipefish rivals that of any other taxon yet studied...
Microsatellite analysis of maternity and the mating system in the Gulf pipefish Syngnathus scovelli, a species with male pregnancy and sex-role reversalA G Jones
Department of Genetics, University of Georgia, Athens 30602, USA
Mol Ecol 6:203-13. 1997..Thus, this population of Gulf pipefish displays a polyandrous genetic mating system. The relevance of these genetic findings is discussed with regard to the evolution of secondary sex traits in this species, and in other syngnathids...
The genetic mating system and tests for cuckoldry in a pipefish species in which males fertilize eggs and brood offspring externallyE E McCoy
Department of Genetics, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602, USA
Mol Ecol 10:1793-800. 2001....

Department of Genetics, University of Georgia, Athens 30602, USA
Mol Ecol 7:1497-505. 1998..The utility of linked loci for parentage analyses is discussed...
The adaptive landscape as a conceptual bridge between micro- and macroevolutionS J Arnold
Department of Zoology, Oregon State University, Corvallis 97331, USA
Genetica 112:9-32. 2001..We also sketch an agenda of empirical issues that is inspired by theoretical developments...
