GUPPIES REPRODUCE FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2013 ![][1] Humans can be forgiven for assuming that successful reproduction requires both partners to be alive. Amazingly, this isn't the case for the Trinidadian guppy. Under laboratory conditions, female guppies are able to store sperm for up to a year, potentially allowing them ...

Using a robotic fish to investigate individual differences in social responsiveness in the guppy
bioRxiv, 2018 Responding towards the actions of others is one of the most important behavioral traits whenever animals of the same species interact. Mutual influences among interacting individuals may modulate the social responsiveness seen and thus makes it often ...

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Flowers with striking colours or scents are often considered to have an advantage in the competition for pollinators. However, if pollinators copy others to avoid exploration costs in changing environments, less attractive flowers may benefit from acquiring early ...

Multiple pigment cell types contribute to the black, blue, and orange ornaments of male guppies (Poecilia reticulata). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The fitness of male guppies (Poecilia reticulata) highly depends on the size and number of their black, blue, and orange ornaments. Recently, progress has been made regarding the genetic mechanisms underlying male guppy pigment pattern formation, but we ...

Multiple benefits of multiple mating in guppies [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2000 The rewards of promiscuity for males are undisputed. But why should a female mate promiscuously, particularly when her partners offer no resources other than sperm and increase her chances of succumbing to predation or disease? This question has been hotly debated but at present remains largely unresolved [Jennions, M. D. & Petrie, M. (

Evaluation of Experimental Populations and Glandular-Haired Varieties of Alfalfa for Alfalfa Blotch Leafminer (Diptera: Agromyzidae) Feeding Injury [PDF]
, 2018 Following the spread of the alfalfa blotch leafminer, Agromyza frontella (Rondani) (Diptera: Agromyzidae), into Minnesota and Wisconsin U.S.A. during 1994-1997, three field trials were conducted in Minnesota to assess the potential for leafminer ...
