This project explores mate preferences in Australian Drosophila to understand how these preferences evolve and diverge among populations. It combines genetics and behavioral studies to assess the adaptive significance of male and female mate choices and their genetic interrelation.
Mate preferences are ubiquitous in nature and it has long been recognised that the sexual selection they generate may have important consequences for the evolution of biodiversity.
This is especially true when preferences differ among populations, a situation that appears common in nature.
Despite much attention being given to their role in the evolution of extravagant sexual display traits, less work has focused on understanding the mechanisms by which they diverge among populations and in part…
