Shrimp adjust their sex ratio to fluctuating age distributions

Creator:

Charnov, Eric L. and Hannah, Robert W.

Abstract:

Long-term data sets that quantitatively confirm basic ecological theory are rare for field populations. Highly variable recruitment often causes wide temporal variation in population age distribution and basic theory for adaptive sex ratio often predicts ‘sex ratio tracking’ to match the fluctuating age distribution. Using sex-changing shrimp as a model...
