Diet‐based assortative mating through sexual imprinting

EK Delaney, HE Hoekstra - Ecology and Evolution, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Speciation is facilitated by “magic traits,” where divergent natural selection on such traits also
results in assortative mating. In animal populations, diet has the potential to act as a magic …
