Sperm Storage in the Female Reproductive Tract in Birds
The ability to store sperm in the female genital tract is frequently observed in vertebrates as well as in invertebrates. Because of the presence of a system that maintains the ejaculated sperm alive in the female reproductive tract in a variety of animals, this strategy appears to be advantageous for animal reproduction. Although the occurrence and physiological reasons for sperm storage have ...
متن کاملCloacae, Cloacal Glands and Female Sperm Storage in Giant Salamanders
Most of the 620+ species of salamanders are relatively small animals, rarely exceeding 200 mm total length, but members of the families Cryptobranchidae (1800 mm), Sirenidae (978 mm), Amphiumidae (1162 mm), Proteidae (486 mm) and Dicamptodontidae (351 mm) can truly be considered "giant salamanders." These families have few species (Proteidae with six species is the most speciose) and are aquati...

15 صفحه اولPrecious Essences: Female Secretions Promote Sperm Storage in Drosophila
Sperm that females receive during mating are stored in special places in the females' reproductive tracts. These storage sites serve to support and retain the sperm, maintaining the sperms' motility and, in mammals, permitting final sperm-maturation. The molecules that attract sperm to these sites and mediate what happens to them there have remained elusive. New research, using elegant genetic ...
متن کاملWinding paths to simplicity: genome evolution in facultative insect symbionts
Symbiosis between organisms is an important driving force in evolution. Among the diverse relationships described, extensive progress has been made in insect–bacteria symbiosis, which improved our understanding of the genome evolution in host-associated bacteria. Particularly, investigations on several obligate mutualists have pushed the limits of what we know about the minimal genomes for sust...
