Simulating Male Selfish Strategy in Reproduction Dispute [PDF]
We introduce into the Penna Model for biological ageing one of the possible male mechanisms used to maximize the ability of their sperm to compete with sperm from other males. Such a selfish mechanism increases the male reproduction success but may decrease the survival probability of the whole female population, depending on how it acts.

THE MALE GENITALIA AND THE SUBDIVISIONS OF AGROTIS [PDF]
It is forty years ago since Lederer used the male genitalia to group the European species of Agrotis. According to the latest general work on the subject, the 127 European species of Agrotus fall into nine groups, characterized chiefly by changes in the form of teh male genitalic appendages.

In many species, females are hypothesised to obtain 'good genes' for their offspring by mating with males in good condition. However, female preferences might deplete genetic variance and make choice redundant. Additionally, high-condition males sometime produce low-fitness offspring, for example because of environmental turnover and gene-by ...

Genital evolution: why are females still understudied? [PDF]
The diversity, variability, and apparent rapid evolution of animal genitalia are a vivid focus of research in evolutionary biology, and studies exploring genitalia have dramatically increased over the past decade. These studies, however, exhibit a strong
