Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Is evidence that pairing with genetically similar mates maladaptive in a monogamous bird?
Answer: These findings provide evidence that breeders in a genetically monogamous species may avoid the fitness costs of reproducing with a genetically similar mate. In such species that lack the opportunity to obtain extra-pair fertilizations, mate choice may therefore be under high selective pressure.
Output (English): yes
