Model eggs fail to detect egg recognition in host populations after brood parasitism is relaxed

BACKGROUND: Obligate brood parasites exert strong selective pressure on target hosts. In response, hosts typically evolve anti-parasitism strategies, of which egg recognition is one of the most efficient. Generally, host egg-recognition capacity is determined using model eggs. Previous studies have...
