  34. <meta content="Sex allocation theory predicts that parents should bias their reproductive investments toward the offspring
  35. sex generating the greatest fitness return. When females are the heterogametic sex (e.g., ZW in butterflies, some
  36. lizards, and birds), production of daughters is associated with an increased risk of offspring inviability due to the
  37. expression of paternal, detrimental recessives on the Z chromosome. Thus, daughters should primarily be produced
  38. when mating with partners of high genetic quality. When female sand lizards (Lacerta agilis) mate with genetically
  39. superior males, exhibiting high MHC Class I polymorphism, offspring sex ratios are biased towards daughters, possibly
  40. due to recruitment of more Z-carrying oocytes when females have assessed the genetic quality of their partners. If
  41. our study has general applicability across taxa, it predicts taxon-specific sex allocation effects depending on which

  270. sex generating the greatest fitness return. When females are the heterogametic sex (e.g., ZW in butterflies, some&#13;
  271. lizards, and birds), production of daughters is associated with an increased risk of offspring inviability due to the&#13;
  272. expression of paternal, detrimental recessives on the Z chromosome. Thus, daughters should primarily be produced&#13;
  273. when mating with partners of high genetic quality. When female sand lizards (Lacerta agilis) mate with genetically&#13;
  274. superior males, exhibiting high MHC Class I polymorphism, offspring sex ratios are biased towards daughters, possibly&#13;
  275. due to recruitment of more Z-carrying oocytes when females have assessed the genetic quality of their partners. If&#13;
  276. our study has general applicability across taxa, it predicts taxon-specific sex allocation effects depending on which&#13;
  277. sex is the heterogametic one.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">The definitive version is available at www.blackwell-synergy.com&#13;
