Effect of inbreeding and heritability of sperm competition success in the bulb mite Rhizoglyphus robini.

Heredity - 1 Jun 2005

Konior M, Keller L, Radwan J

Abstract excerpt

Sperm competition is a potent evolutionary force shaping the reproductive biology of most animal species. Here, we estimated the heritability of sperm competition success in the promiscuous bulb mite Rhizoglyphus robini. Sperm competition success was measured with the sterile male technique as the proportion of eggs fertilised by the second of three males mated with a single female. Sperm competition success...
