Post-copulatory opportunities for sperm competition and cryptic female choice provide no offspring fitness benefits in externally fertilizing salmon
Published in Royal Society open science (01-03-2016)“…There is increasing evidence that females can somehow improve their offspring fitness by mating with multiple males, but we understand little about the exact…”
