Abstract
To know the optimality under given conditions is one of most important problems in various fields. In the present paper, we focus on the optimality of sex ratio α in animals. So far, the optimal sex ratio has been obtained by evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS) in most cases. Recently, however, our coauthors have presented a lattice model of mating population to explain the optimality not by ESS but by the sustainability. They mainly studied the symmetrical case between male and female. In the present paper, we deal with asymmetrical cases: there are sterile male. Our results relatively well explain the evolution of animal sex ratio. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
