The Role of Nourishment in Oogenesis

Wheeler, Diana·1996·Annual Review of Entomology

Abstract

Sexual receptivity is female behavior that allows or helps a male to fertilize her eggs; through this behavior, females play an active role in reproduction. Multiple signals may be used for receptivity or unreceptivity. Insect species exhibit three ontogenetic patterns of receptivity: cyclic, in which females alternately become receptive and unreceptive; brief, in which females mate during one short developmental period; and continuous. Primary (initial) receptivity may be stimulated or inhibited by diet, ovarian development, or juvenile hormone. In species with cyclic receptivity, remating may be inhibited by copulation itself, the presence of eggs, sperm stored in spermathecae, or seminal factors—usually peptides—secreted by the male accessory glands. In many species, there is substantial genetic variation for both primary receptivity and speed of remating. Several single-gene mutations reduce female receptivity; most of these mutations also impair sensory functioning.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
