Habitat partitioning in native Geranium species through reproductive interference. [PDF]
Ann Bot, 2020 AbstractBackground and AimsHeterospecific pollen transfer may reduce the fitness of recipient species, a phenomenon known as reproductive interference. A theoretical study has predicted that distributions of species pairs affected by reproductive interference may be syntopic under negligible reproductive interference, sympatric but with partitioning at

When does reproductive interference occur? Predictions and data
Population Ecology, 2020 AbstractReproductive interference is interspecific sexual interactions that are costly to at least one species involved. Although many studies have reported a substantial fitness cost associated with reproductive interference, suggesting its ecological significance, others have not observed reproductive interference in study species.

Niche differentiation, reproductive interference, and range expansion. [PDF]
Ecol Lett, 2023 Abstract Understanding species distributions and predicting future range shifts requires considering all relevant abiotic factors and biotic interactions. Resource competition has received the most attention, but reproductive interference is another widespread biotic interaction that could influence species ranges.

Comparison of mechanisms of reproductive interference in Taraxacum. [PDF]
Ann Bot, 2019 Reproductive interference may reduce fitness of either of the involved species, with potentially important ecological and evolutionary consequences. Except for the effect of shared pollinators on reproductive success, however, mechanisms underlying reproductive interference have been little studied, even though the severity of its impact may depend on ...

Reproductive interference determines persistence and exclusion in species interactions [PDF]
Journal of Animal Ecology, 2009 Summary 1. Reproductive interference is a negative interspecific sexual interaction that adversely affects the fitness of males and females during reproductive process. Theoretical studies suggest that because reproductive interference is characterized by positive frequency dependence it is far more likely to cause species exclusion than the density ...

Male Mating Behaviour Is Shaped by Previous Experience of Both Conspecific and Heterospecific Females in the Seed Bug Lygaeus simulans [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionMating decisions are often context‐dependent. For example, choosy individuals may benefit from relaxing mate preferences if conspecific mates are scarce. However, prior experience of heterospecifics can also alter mating decisions, and this can influence
