Female x male interactions in Drosophila sperm competition.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 8 Jan 1999

Clark A G, Begun D J, Prout T

Abstract excerpt

In several organisms, the success of a male's sperm in multiply inseminated females depends on the male's genotype. In Drosophila, the female also plays a role in determining which sperm are successful. Pairwise tests among six isogenic lines of Drosophila melanogaster were performed to determine whether there is a genotype-specific interaction in the success of sperm. The success of a particular male's sperm was...
