Sex allocation in relation to host races in the brood-parasitic common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus).
Sex allocation theory and empirical evidence both suggest that natural selection should favour maternal control of offspring sex ratio in relation to their ability to invest in the offspring. Generalist parasites constitute a particularly interesting group to test this theory as different females co...
