The evolution of mate choice and mating biases (2003, background): “…indicates that female mating biases (in the sense of 'resistance') can also be favoured by direct selection because excess mating reduces female longevity (for a review see Arnqvist & Nilsson (2000)) and males vary in the survival costs they impose on females (Pitnick & Garcõ´a-González 2002).”
Pattern of sperm transfer in redback spiders: implications for sperm competition and male sacrifice (2004, background): “In many insect species, the male’s ejaculate contains nongametic substances that affect female reproductive behaviors, such as receptivity to further matings and oviposition patterns (for a review, see Arnqvist and Nilsson, 2000; Cordero, 1995; Eberhard, 1996; Hartmann and Loher, 1999; Johnstone a”
The effects of copulation duration in the bruchid beetle Callosobruchus maculatus (2006, background): “In addition, even though the empirical evidence supporting substantial benefits to females from nuptial gifts is still inconclusive (Arnqvist and Nilsson, 2000; Vahed, 1998), long copulations may be beneficial to females when males transfer nutrients or feed females during mating (Thornhill, 1976;…”
Male mating history and female fecundity in the Lepidoptera: do male virgins make better partners? (2005, methodology): “We consulted scientific literature databases, the Internet and previous reviews on this and related topics (Ridley 1988; Vahed 1998; Arnqvist and Nilsson 2000; Torres-Vila et al. 2004) to compile data from 29 studies of 25 Lepidopteran species that related female reproductive output to male mating h”
The Evolution of Polyandry: Sperm Competition, Sperm Selection, and Offspring Viability (2005, positive): “The significantly greater effect of polyandry on egg production in nuptialfeeding species (Arnqvist & Nilsson 2000) is perhaps not surprising, given the increased nutrient resources obtained by females through multiple mating.”
Female Callosobruchus maculatus mate when they are thirsty: resource-rich ejaculates as mating effort in a beetle (2007, background): “Wickler 1985; Eberhard 1996; Vahed 1998; Arnqvist & Nilsson 2000 ).”
Adaptation versus pleiotropy: why do males harm their mates? (2003, methodology): “With regard to remating, resisting courting males incurs a range of different costs to females (Arnqvist and Nilsson, 2000).”
The evolution of polyandry: an examination of the genetic incompatibility and good‐sperm hypotheses (2001, background): “In their recent meta-analysis of the insect literature, Arnqvist & Nilsson (2000) found that the average net ®tness gain from polyandry was as high as 30±70%.”
Toward a New Sexual Selection Paradigm: Polyandry, Conflict and Incompatibility (Invited Article) (2003, background): “A recent meta-analysis of 122 experimental studies of insects does suggest, however, that coercion by males may play a role in polyandry by elevating mating rate above the level that is optimal for female reproductive success (Arnqvist & Nilsson 2000).”
Speciation and Sexual Conflict (2005, background): “For example, sexual conflict can occur over mating rate (Rice and Holland, 1997; Holland and Rice, 1998; Rice, 1998; Arnqvist and Nilsson, 2000), offspring size (Haig, 2000), parental care (Smith and Härdling, 2000; Barta et al., 2002), and the use of sperm (Pitnick et al., 1999; Presgraves et…”
Sex determination and the evolution of polyandry in honey bees (Apis mellifera) (2002, background): “Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain the potential benefit gained from polyandry ( Arnqvist and Nilsson 2000; Jennions and Petrie 2000), but several reviews have concluded that the “genetic diversity” hypotheses are the most plausible explanations for polyandry in honey bees and other soci”
Do males matter? The role of males in population dynamics (2007, background): “If costs increase with mating rate, females are predicted to mate at an intermediate rate in order to maximise their fitness (Arnqvist and Nilsson 2000).”
Material and genetic benefits of female multiple mating and polyandry (2002, methodology): “A large body of empirical work suggests that these costs may be offset through the accruement of material benefits gained by the female from each mating (see Arnqvist & Nilsson 2000 for review).”
Sexual conflict and life histories (2006, background): “Although it has been recognized that females often gain benefits from mating with multiple males (reviewed in Arnqvist & Nilsson 2000; Knight 2002; Hosken & Stockley 2003), males typically have more to gain from inseminating additional females (Bateman 1948).”
