Making sense of intralocus and interlocus sexual conflict. [PDF]
Sexual conflict occurs because males and females are exposed to different selection pressures. This can affect many aspects of female and male biology, such as physiology, behavior, genetics, and even population ecology.

Protein-Level Interactions as Mediators of Sexual Conflict in Ants. [PDF]
Sexual conflicts continue after insemination because reproductive interests of the sexes differ when females mate with multiple males. In the ant Atta colombica,, exposure to male seminal fluid proteins harms rival sperm, but queens are expected to ...

Macroevolutionary consequences of sexual conflict. [PDF]
Intralocus sexual conflicts arise whenever the fitness optima for a trait expressed in both males and females differ between the sexes and shared genetic architecture constrains the sexes from evolving independently towards their respective optima. Such sexual conflicts are commonplace in nature, yet their long-term evolutionary consequences remain ...

GENETIC DIFFERENTIATION BY SEXUAL CONFLICT [PDF]
Sexual conflict has been suggested as a general cause of genetic diversification in reproductive characters, and as a possible cause of speciation. We use individual-based simulations to study the dynamics of sexual conflict in an isolated diploid population with no spatial structure. To explore the effects of genetic details, we consider two different

Metapopulation structure modulates sexual antagonism
Despite the far‐reaching evolutionary implications of sexual conflict, the effects of metapopulation structure, when populations are subdivided into several demes connected to some degree by migration, on sexual conflict dynamics are unknown.

A potential role for restricted intertactical heritability in preventing intralocus conflict
Intralocus sexual conflict, which arises when the same trait has different fitness optima in males and females, reduces population growth rates. Recently, evolutionary biologists have recognized that intralocus conflict can occur between morphs or ...

Sexual Conflict in Hermaphrodites [PDF]
Hermaphrodites combine the male and female sex functions into a single individual, either sequentially or simultaneously. This simple fact means that they exhibit both similarities and differences in the way in which they experience, and respond to, sexual conflict compared to separate-sexed organisms.

Background Consideration for men as survivors of sexual violence in conflict and post-conflict settings has gained some prominence in the last decade. There remains a paucity of empirical data on forms of sexual violence from the survivors’ perspective ...

The Mediating Role of Sexual Function in the Relationship between Sensation-seeking, Gender Role Conflict, and Novelty-Seeking in Married Men in Bushehr (Iran) in 2020 [PDF]
Background: Potential problems among couples can negatively impact the lives of the family. Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between sensation-seeking, gender role conflict, and novelty-seeking in married men with the
