Differences in sperm swimming speed and morphology between the three genetic morphs in the ruff sandpiper

M. Bulla, C. Küpper, D. B. Lank, J. Albrechtova, J. L. Loveland, K. Martin, K. Teltscher, M. Cragnolini, M. Lierz, T. Albrecht, W. Forstmeier, B. Kempenaers

The paper compares sperm swimming speed and morphology among three genetic morphs of ruff sandpipers and finds Faeder sperm are slowest, but Independent sperm do not show expected higher quality.

Fitness benefits from co-display favour subdominant male-male partnerships between phenotypes

J. D. M. Tolliver, K. Kupan, D. B. Lank, S. Schindler, C. Kuepper

The paper models co-display behavior in male ruffs to show how subdominant males can benefit from partnerships that reduce mating skew among residents.

Unexpected diversity in socially synchronized rhythms of shorebirds

M. Bulla, M. Valcu, A. M. Dokter, A. A. Dondua, A. Kosztolanyi, A. Rutten, B. Helm, B. K. Sandercock, B. Casler, B. J. Ens, C. S. Spiegel, C. J. Hassell, C. Kupper, C. Minton, D. Burgas, , Koloski

This study examines incubation rhythms in shorebirds, finding significant diversity in synchronization patterns and linking them to predation risk rather than energy demands.
