Paying the costs of reproduction

Flatt, Thomas

When a female fly mates it produces a hormone that increases the size of its midgut and enhances fat metabolism in order to provide the energy needed for reproduction.

A Bit of Sex Stabilizes Host+Parasite Dynamics

Flatt, Thomas ; Maire, Nicolas ; Doebeli, Michael

In: Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2001, vol. 212, no. 3, p. 345-354

To date, only a few studies have focused on the effects of sex on population dynamics. Previous models have typically found that sexual reproduction dampens population fluctuations. Although asexual and sexual reproduction are just the two endpoints along a continuum of varying rates of sex, previous work has ignored the effects of intermediate degrees of sex on population dynamics. Here we study...
