Male reproductive strategies in two species of spider crabs, Leurocyclus tuberculosus and Libinia spinosa
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2020-09)
Reproductive strategies vary according to season length, individual reproductive traits, and factors associated with the social context such as density and sex ratio of the individuals. The social context predicts the ...
Body condition of females during tadpole attendance and its potential costs in a Neotropical foam-nesting frog (Leptodactylus podicipinus)
(2022-01-01)
Parental care increases offspring survival, but may be costly for parents, reducing future survival and reproduction. Offspring attendance may increase predation risk, or reduce food intake, mating opportunities, and ...

Tambaqui Colossoma macropomum is the most important species for fish farming in the Pará State, since it adapts to different production systems, presents a regular supply of young forms throughout the year and has an ...
Cost-effectiveness of a potential Zika vaccine candidate: A case study for Colombia
(2018-07-03)
Background: A number of Zika vaccine platforms are currently being investigated, some of which have entered clinical trials. We sought to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of a potential Zika vaccine candidate under the WHO ...
Potential costs of bacterial infection on storage protein gene expression and reproduction in queenless Apis mellifera worker bees on distinct dietary regimes
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTDOXFORD, 2012)
Insects are able to combat infection by initiating an efficient immune response that involves synthesizing antimicrobial peptides and a range of other defense molecules. These responses may be costly to the organism, ...
Thermal parameters changes in males of Rhinella arenarum (Anura:Bufonidae) related to reproductive periods
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2011)
Do female reproductive stage and phenotype influence thermal requirements in an oviparous lizard?
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-01)
Reproduction is an energetically costly activity that can alter thermal requirements in Squamata. This phenomenon has been largely studied in many viviparous species; however, little is known about the role of oviparous ...
Latitudinal comparisons of reproductive traits in five Brachyuran species along the Chilean coast

Reproductive and developmental costs of deltamethrin resistance in the Chagas disease vector Triatoma infestans
(Society for Vector Ecology, 2015-06)
Effective chemical control relies on reducing vector population size. However, insecticide selection pressure is often associated with the development of resistant populations that reduce control success. In treated areas, ...
