Sex peptide receptor is not required for refractoriness to remating or induction of egg laying inAedes aegypti

Abstract: Across diverse insect taxa, the behavior and physiology of females dramatically changes after mating – processes largely triggered by the transfer of seminal proteins from their mates. In the vinegar flyDrosophila melanogaster, the seminal protein sex peptide (SP) decreases the likelihood of female flies remating and causes additional behavioral and physiological changes that promote fertility including increasing egg production. Although SP is only found in theDrosophilagenus, its receptor, sex peptide recept… Show more
