Sexes suffer from suboptimal lifespan because of genetic conflict in a seed beetle.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Oct 2012

Berg Elena C, Maklakov Alexei A

Abstract excerpt

Males and females have different routes to successful reproduction, resulting in sex differences in lifespan and age-specific allocation of reproductive effort. The trade-off between current and future reproduction is often resolved differently by males and females, and both sexes can be constrained in their ability to reach their sex-specific optima owing to intralocus sexual conflict. Such genetic antagonism...
