Are baculum size and allometry a response to post-copulatory sexual selection in promiscuous males of the house mouse?
Abstract

We quantified bacular, testicular, and vesicular size, variation, and allometry in house mice (Laurentii in: Mus musculus Linnaeus, Systema naturae 10th ed, Salvii, Stockholm, 1758) from the western Carpathians (Slovakia).
