Cross-generational comparison of reproductive success in recently caught strains of Drosophila melanogaster.

BMC evolutionary biology - 6 Feb 2017

Nguyen Trinh T X, Moehring Amanda J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Males and females often have opposing strategies for increasing fitness. Males that out-compete others will acquire more mating opportunities and thus have higher lifetime reproductive success. Females that mate with a high quality male receive either direct benefits through productivity or acquisition of additional resources or indirect benefits through the increased fitness of offspring. These...
