Sexing Adelie penguins with molecular methods
No evidence of sexual size difference seems to occur in the Adélie penguin, especially in chicks. Although the beak of the males are usually larger than those of females, sexing only by direct observations could be difficult. PCR-based methods have been used to successfully sex other species of penguins.
