The developmental plasticity and functional significance of an additional sperm storage compartment in female yellow dung flies
2013-12-01
Abstract excerpt
The mechanistic basis for and adaptive significance of variation in female sperm storage organs are important for a range of questions concerning sexual selection and speciation, as such variation influences the evolutionary trajectories of male fertilization related traits and may facilitate speciation through its effects on gamete recognition. Female yellow dung flies (Scathophaga stercoraria) usually develop th...
