Why mammalian lineages respond differently to sexual selection: metabolic rate constrains the evolution of sperm size

The hypothesis that sperm competition should favour increases in sperm size, because it results in faster swimming speeds, has received support from studies on many taxa, but remains contentious for mammals. We suggest that this may be because mammalian lineages respond differently to sexual selecti...
