Factors predicting male fertilization success in an external fertilizer (2008, methodology): “We used the R software (R Core Development team 2004) and since the data were overdispersed we used the quasibinomial link function (McCullagh and Nelder 1989 )a ndF-tests for significance testing ( Crawley 2002 ).”
Sperm quantity and quality effects on fertilization success in a highly promiscuous passerine, the tree swallow Tachycineta bicolor (2010, background): “…have found relationships between sperm quality traits and fertilization success both in external (e.g. Levitan 2000; Gage et al. 2004; Casselman et al. 2006; Rudolfsen et al. 2008) and internal fertilizers (e.g. Birkhead et al. 1999; Donoghue et al. 1999; Denk et al. 2005; Malo et al. 2005).”
Sperm number and velocity affect sperm competition success in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata) (2011, background): “…Padova, Italy e-mail: clelia.gasparini@unipd.it 2000), fish (Burness et al. 2004; Gage et al. 2004; Liljedal et al. 2008; Rurangwa et al. 2004; Skjaeraasen et al. 2009; Gasparini et al. 2010a), birds (Birkhead et al. 1999; Denk et al. 2005) and mammals (Malo et al. 2005; Moore and Akhondi 1996).”
