Phenotypic plasticity of mate recognition systems prevents sexual interference between two sympatric leaf beetle species.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Aug 2016

Otte Tobias, Hilker Monika, Geiselhardt Sven

Abstract excerpt

Maladaptive sexual interactions among heterospecific individuals (sexual interference) can prevent the coexistence of animal species. Thus, the avoidance of sexual interference by divergence of mate recognition systems is crucial for a stable coexistence in sympatry. Mate recognition systems are thought to be under tight genetic control. However, we demonstrate that mate recognition systems of two closely related...
