Reproductive interference in insects [PDF]
1. Reproductive interference occurs when members of different species engage in reproductive interactions, leading to a fitness cost to one or both actors. 2. These interactions can arise through signal interference (‘signal‐jamming’), disrupted mate searching, heterospecific rivalry, mate choice errors, or misplaced courtship, mating

Reproductive interference hampers species coexistence despite conspecific sperm precedence [PDF]
AbstractNegative interspecific mating interactions, known as reproductive interference, can hamper species coexistence in a local patch and promote niche partitioning or geographical segregation of closely related species. Conspecific sperm precedence (CSP), which occurs when females that have mated with both conspecific and heterospecific males ...

Co-occurrence pattern of congeneric tree species provides conflicting evidence for competition relatedness hypothesis [PDF]
In plants, negative reproductive interaction among closely related species (i.e., reproductive interference) is known to hamper the coexistence of congeneric species while facilitation can increase species persistence.

Reproductive interference explains persistence of aggression between species. [PDF]
Interspecific territoriality occurs when individuals of different species fight over space, and may arise spontaneously when populations of closely related territorial species first come into contact. But defence of space is costly, and unless the benefits of excluding heterospecifics exceed the costs, natural selection should favour divergence in ...

Drosophila suzukii represents one of the major agricultural pests worldwide. The identification of safety and long-lasting tools to suppress its populations is therefore crucial to mitigate the environmental and economic damages due to its occurrence ...

Combined VEGFR and MAPK pathway inhibition in angiosarcoma
Angiosarcoma is an aggressive malignancy of endothelial cells that carries a high mortality rate. Cytotoxic chemotherapy can elicit clinical responses, but the duration of response is limited.

Propagation of interspecies sexual behaviour between Japanese macaques and Sika deer: First evidence
This naturalistic note presents a series of observation of interspecies sexual behaviour involving Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata yakui) and Sika deer (Cervus Nippon yakushimae) on Yakushima Island, Japan.

A General Explanation for the Persistence of Reproductive Interference [PDF]
Reproductive interference is widespread, despite the theoretical expectation that it should be eliminated by reproductive character displacement (RCD). A possible explanation is that females of sympatric species are too similar phenotypically for males to distinguish between them, resulting in a type of evolutionary dilemma or catch-22 in which ...
