Drosophila seminal sex peptide associates with rival as well as own sperm, providing SP function in polyandrous females
When females mate with more than one male, the males’ paternity share is affected by biases in sperm use. These competitive interactions occur while female and male molecules and cells work interdependently to optimize fertility, including modifying the female’s physiology through interactions with...
