Sex-linked genomic variation reveals reproductive skew and male-biased dispersal in polygynous sea lions

Sex-biased dispersal and the resulting asymmetry in gene flow are important factors in evolution. However, their quantification in natural populations remains challenging, not least because sex-specific reproductive skew, as reflected in the mating system, further influences the relative contributions of males and females to the genetic pool of subsequent generations. Incorporating information…
