Male mate‐choice copying: a neglected aspect of sexual selection
Mate‐choice copying occurs when the choices of others influence an individual's mating preferences. While this behavior has been observed across various species, most research has focused on female copying behavior.

How to measure female ejaculate ejection, is it related to pre‐mating sexual selection, or influenced by post‐mating sexual environment? We explore these questions in fruit flies. ABSTRACT Sexual selection operates across pre‐ and post‐mating episodes, driven by intra‐sexual competition and inter‐sexual choice for mates or gametes. While these episodes

The Effect of Plant Host Density on Disease Incidence—A Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT Plant spacing plays a crucial role in determining the degree of interaction between them. It changes plant physiological processes, plant architecture, microclimate in the canopy and the dispersal and growth of pests and pathogens. This study aims to quantify the relationship between planting density and disease incidence across studies.
