This project investigates the role of sperm conjugates in bushcrickets, focusing on how these structures may enhance fertilization success through cooperation during sperm competition. By conducting mating trials and phylogenetic studies, it aims to link sperm behavior with evolutionary adaptations in response to polya…
Sperm conjugates, where multiple sperm cells attach to each other and move as a group, have been described in a wide range of taxa and could have significant impacts on the fertilization process, but understanding of their function is limited.
Effective sperm cooperation through these conjugates could have evolved as an adaptation to sperm competition between multiple males, but this hypothesis has not been tested in insects, which have some of the largest reported sperm conjugates in animals. B…
