TL;DR: These genome sequences augment the formidable genetic tools that have made Drosophila melanogaster a pre-eminent model for animal genetics, and will further catalyse fundamental research on mechanisms of development, cell biology, genetics, disease, neurobiology, behaviour, physiology and evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insect seminal fluid proteins: identification and function.
TL;DR: Recent identification of insect SFPs is reviewed and the multiple roles these proteins play in the postmating processes of female insects are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution in the Fast Lane: Rapidly Evolving Sex-Related Genes in Drosophila

TL;DR: A relatively high proportion of SRR genes have experienced accelerated divergence throughout the genus Drosophila, and several testis-specific genes, male seminal fluid proteins (SFPs), and spermatogenesis genes show lineage-specific bursts of accelerated evolution and positive selection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seminal fluid protein allocation and male reproductive success.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Drosophila melanogaster to demonstrate that Sfps are strategically allocated to females in response to the potential level of sperm competition and that males who can produce and transfer larger quantities of specific Sfps have a significant competitive advantage.
Report Seminal Fluid Protein Allocation and Male Reproductive Success
Stuart Wigby,Laura K. Sirot,Jon R. Linklater,Norene A. Buehner,Amanda Bretman,Mariana F. Wolfner,Tracey Chapman,Darwin Building +7 more
TL;DR: The results show that quantitative variation in specific Sfps is likely to play an important role in postcopulatory sexual selection and that investment in Sfp production is essential for male fitness in a competitive environment.
