Polyandry increases reproductive performance but does not decrease survival in female Brontispa longissima.

Bulletin of entomological research - 1 Apr 2017

Abstract excerpt

The costs and benefits of polyandry are still not well understood. We studied the effects of multiple mating on the reproductive performance of female Brontispa longissima (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), one of the most serious pests of the coconut palm, by using three experimental treatments: (1) singly-mated females (single treatment); (2) females that mated 10 times with the same male (repetition treatment); and...
