Alpedrinha, J. & Magalhães S. (2016) Reproductive interference meets sex allocation: l’enfer c’est les autres?
Current Biology, 26, R461–R480. DOI:10.1016/j.cub.2016.04.034 (IF2016 8,851; Q1 Cell Biology)Brine shrimp produce a maladaptive excess of sons when co-occurring with females from a related parthenogenetic species.
