Not all fish play by the same reproductive rules. Evolutionary biology reveals how deception became a successful mating ...
In mosquitofish, of the genus Gambusia, male fish are smaller than females -- sometimes only half the size. Biologists had previously assumed that smaller male mosquitofish had at least some ...
Even accounting for their proportionate size, bigger female fish produce many more offspring than smaller fish, a new study reveals. The results hold implications for fisheries managers, since climate ...
