Frequent origins of traumatic insemination involve convergent shifts in sperm and genital morphology
Traumatic insemination is a mating behavior during which the (sperm) donor uses a
traumatic intromittent organ to inject an ejaculate through the epidermis of the (sperm) …

Faster rates of molecular sequence evolution in reproduction-related genes and in species with hypodermic sperm morphologies
Sexual selection drives the evolution of many striking behaviors and morphologies and
should leave signatures of selection at loci underlying these phenotypes. However, although …

Evolution of sex allocation plasticity in a hermaphroditic flatworm genus
Sex allocation theory in simultaneous hermaphrodites predicts that optimal sex allocation is
influenced by local sperm competition, which occurs when related sperm compete to fertilize …

Evolution and co-evolution of the suck behaviour, a postcopulatory female resistance trait that manipulates received ejaculate
Sexual conflicts over the post-mating fate of received ejaculate can favour traits in one sex
that are costly to the other. Reciprocally mating hermaphrodites face unique challenges as …
