Drosophila ananassae, a cosmopolitan and domestic species, is largely circumtropical in distribution and belongs to the ananassae species complex of the ananassae subgroup of the melanogaster species group. In the present study, experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of density on female remating frequency by employing different wild-type

Remating in a planktonic marine calanoid copepod
Marine Biology, 1971The knowledge that the initial mating in planktonic copepods may be inadequate to permit realization of a female's total reproductive potential, and that remating can occur, has important implications for both population dynamics and speciation studies.

Sperm displacement after remating in Drosophila melanogaster
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1993Abstract We examined sperm displacement in a fruitfly species in which females remate, D. melanogaster . Wildtype females were mated to males carrying dominant mutations, then given an opportunity to remate with wildtype males 6 h after the initial mating. The progeny were scored as first or second male progeny by the presence or absence of dominant

Sperm loss by remating Drosophila melanogaster females
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1990Abstract As in many other insect species, sperm from the second male take precedence over those of the first when Drosophila melanogaster females remate. Two hypotheses have been proposed to account for sperm precedence in this species: (1) first male sperm are released from storage after remating, then restored along with second male sperm: (2 ...

Eight hour copulation of the melon fly,Bactrocera cucurbitae, which usually mates at dusk and finishes copulation at dawn, inhibited female remating, while 3 h copulation did not. Copulation of females with either normal or virgin sterile males inhibited female remating.

Sexual dimorphism in remating in Hawaiian Drosophila species
Animal Behaviour, 1992Males and females have been predicted to show similar patterns of return to receptivity after mating, as a consequence of the genetic correlation between these traits in the two sexes. This hypothesis was tested by comparing mating and remating behaviour among several species of Hawaiian Drosophila.

Sex-specific selection on time to remate inDrosophila melanogaster
Animal Behaviour, 1998Female Drosophila melanogaster were artificially selected for fast and slow time to remate (denoted 'high' and 'low' selection regimes, respectively). Both selection regimes and a control were replicated three times. Correlated responses to selection in females and in males were measured.
