Male competition and the evolution of mating and ire-history traits in experimental populations of Aedes aegypti

Brian Dennis Hollis

Aedes aegypti is an important disease vector and a major target of reproductive control efforts. We manipulated the opportunity for sexual selection in populations of Ae. aegypti by controlling the number of males competing for a single female. Populations ...

No Scope for Social Modulation of Steroid Levels in a Year-Round Territorial Damselfish

Katarina Damjanovic

Both latitude and mating system have been proposed to shape relationships between steroid hormone levels and social behavior. Recently it has been postulated that species with long lasting non-seasonal territorial behavior have low androgen responsiveness. ...

Turnover and accumulation of genetic diversity across large time-scale cycles of isolation and connection of populations

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Major climatic and geological events but also population history (secondary contacts) have generated cycles of population isolation and connection of long and short periods. Recent empirical and theoretical studies suggest that fast evolutionary processes ...

Evolution of uni- and bifactorial sexual compatibility systems in fungi

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Mating systems, that is, whether organisms give rise to progeny by selfing, inbreeding or outcrossing, strongly affect important ecological and evolutionary processes. Large variations in mating systems exist in fungi, allowing the study of their origin an ...
