Octopamine-MAPK-SKN-1 signaling suppresses mating-induced oxidative stress in Caenorhabditis elegans gonads to protect fertility

Summary: Sexual conflict over mating is costly to female physiology. Caenorhabditis elegans hermaphrodites generally produce self-progeny, but they can produce cross-progeny upon successfully mating with a male.
