PLoS ONE, 2013 Three main reproductive strategies have been described among insects: most common oviparity, ovoviviparity and viviparity. In the latter strategy, the embryonic development takes place within the body of the mother which provides gas exchange and ...

Climate, geographic distribution and viviparity in Liolaemus (Reptilia; Squamata) species: when hypotheses need to be tested [PDF]
, 2014 La distribución de los reptiles, dada su dependencia de la temperatura, puede verse restringida en función del clima. En particular, se han planteado tres hipótesis que vinculan el clima con la distribución y el viviparismo en las especies de reptiles: i)

Reptilian Viviparity and Dollo's Law [PDF]
Evolution, 1998 It has been suggested repeatedly that the evolutionary transition from oviparity (egg-laying) to viviparity (live-bearing) in reptiles is irreversible. However, these adaptive arguments have yet to be tested by detailed examination of the phylogenetic distribution of oviparity and viviparity across a broad range of taxa.

Effects of maternal basking and food quantity during gestation provide evidence for the selective advantage of matrotrophy in a viviparous lizard. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The evolution of matrotrophy (i.e., direct supply of nutrients by the mother during gestation) may be associated with high maternal energy availability during gestation. However, we lack knowledge about the selective advantages of matrotrophic viviparity

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Sexual conflict is caused by differences between the sexes in how fitness is maximized. These differences are shaped by the discrepancy in the investment in gametes, how mates are chosen and how embryos and young are provided for.
