Abstract

A two-locus diploid model is developed in order to analyze stable mother's and offsprings' strategies concerning the offsprings' sex determination and progeny's sex ratio when the cost of rearing a male offspring is different from the cost of rearing a female offspring. If the ratio in cost is λ: 1, then the resulting stable sex ratio in the population lies between the value l: λ, obtained with full mother's control, and a l: λ^1/2, obtained with no maternal interference. -from Authors
