Data of publications on environmental reproductive cues and reproductive phenological shifts

Males and females often desynchronise their mating activity during the breeding season (intersexual phenological asynchrony). This suggests that the two sexes differentially use environmental cues to initiate seasonal reproduction, and climate change may cause phenological shifts in a sex-specific manner, subsequently altering frequency distribution of mating attempts over time and influencing the emergence timing and recruitment success of juveniles. In this article, we tested these hypotheses through literature reviews and theoretical modelling. We found that the sex specificity of environmental cues and phenological shifts remain poorly understood in most sexually reproducing animal taxa because of sex-specific publication bias and data limitations. Meanwhile, our theoretical model predicted that the ecological consequences of phenological shifts are sexually asymmetric, with earlier mating onset of males having generally greater negative effects on population growth than that of fem..., ,

在繁殖季节，雄性与雌性个体的交配活动常出现不同步现象（性间物候异步性，intersexual phenological asynchrony）。这表明两性在利用环境信号启动季节性繁殖的策略上存在差异；气候变化或引发性别特异性的物候偏移，进而随时间改变交配尝试的频率分布，并影响幼体的出现时间与种群补充成功率。本文通过文献综述与理论建模对上述假说进行了验证。研究发现，由于存在性别特异性发表偏倚与数据局限，目前多数有性繁殖动物类群中，环境信号与物候偏移的性别特异性机制仍未得到充分阐释。与此同时，我们的理论模型预测，物候偏移带来的生态后果具有性别不对称性：雄性交配起始时间提前通常会比雌性交配起始时间提前对种群增长产生更强的负面影响，[原文内容未完结]
