Impact of pre-copulatory sexual cannibalism on genetic diversity and efficacy of selection.

Biology letters - 1 May 2024

Martínez Villar Mauro, Bechsgaard Jesper, Bilde Trine, Albo Maria Jose, Tomasco Ivanna H

Abstract excerpt

Factors that increase reproductive variance among individuals act to reduce effective population size (Ne), which accelerates the loss of genetic diversity and decreases the efficacy of purifying selection. These factors include sexual cannibalism, offspring investment and mating system. Pre-copulatory sexual cannibalism, where the female consumes the male prior to mating, exacerbates this effect. We performed...
