Influence of management and environmental factors on mating success of Africanized queen honey bees
(Int Bee Research Assoc, 1995-01-01)
Environmental factors and management techniques were evaluated in São Paulo, Brazil, for enhanced production of Africanized queen honey bees. Queens were reared by the Doolittle method; 12 breeder, 6 cell-builder, and 36 ...
Effect of the symbiont Candidatus Erwinia dacicola on mating success of the olive fly Bactrocera oleae (Diptera: Tephritidae)
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-09)
Mutualistic bacterial endosymbionts provide many benefits to their insect hosts, but their role in mating has not been studied in the past. In this study, we examined copulatory success and mating latency as two parameters ...
Mating systems in caridean shrimp (Decapoda: Caridea) and their evolutionary consequences for sexual dimorphism and reproductive biology
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2003)
Mating success at high temperature in highland- and lowland-derived populations as well as in heat knock-down selected Drosophila buzzatii
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-03)
Thermal-stress selection can affect multiple fitness components including mating success. Reproductive success is one of the most inclusive measures of overall fitness, and mating success is a major component of reproduction. ...
Life History and Mating Behavior of Rhagoletis solanophaga (Diptera: Tephritidae), a Non-Diapausing Species with Highly Variable Mating Duration
(Springer/plenum Publishers, 2016-11)
As an initial contribution to understanding the adaptive value of behavioral and life-history strategies, the life cycle and mating behavior of an unstudied species of tephritid fruit fly in the genus Rhagoletis are ...

How Efficient Is Fertilization by Traumatic Insemination in Orius insidiosus (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae)?
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, 2019-08-01)
Traumatic insemination (TI) can be injurious to females, and females have evolved various paragenital structures to mitigate these impacts. We examined the mating behavior of Orius insidiosus (Say) and the consequences of ...
