Impact of low sperm competition on male reproductive trait allometries in a bush-cricket

Abstract Background Studying reproductive trait allometries can help to understand optimal male investment strategies under sexual selection. In promiscuous mating systems, studies across several taxa suggest that testes allometry is usually positive, presumably due to strong selection on sperm numb...
