Male and female breeding strategies in a cooperative primate

Marmosets are cooperative breeders organized as extended family groups, but breeding is generallyrestricted to a single pair. Breeding competition is fierce in female marmosets; males, on the other hand,show low levels of intragroup aggression. We investigated male and female breeding strategies and...
