Abstract:
Rhabdomys pumilio, in the Eastern Cape of South Africa, does not use short day length as an inhibitory cue for reproductive activity, and, despite previous records indicating that these mice are strictly seasonal in their reproduction, litters have been found during the winters of some years,both in the Eastern Cape and in the Western Cape. This led me to believe that the reproductive activity of Rhabdomys pumilio is more opportunistic and that the cue or cues used to control reproduction are less predictable and, or more variable than the photoperiod cue used by many seasonally reproducing ro

Abstract:
Daily changes in body temperature as well as physical activeness from mating to pregnancy were illustrated in MF1 mice.  Body temperature and physical activity gradually declined as pregnancy advanced while energy intake and body mass increased in late pregnancy.  Diurnal and nocturnal locomotor activity and body temperature were significantly lower in late pregnancy than in non-reproductive and mating phases. Despite low physical activity, inactive body temperature was relatively high through late pregnancy.  This suggests that pregnant mice tend to increase thermogenesis against a drop of bo

Abstract:
Previous studies of the control of reproduction in Rhabdomys pumilio have shown that day length alone does not inhibit spermatogenesis, that a reduction in food availability and ambient temperature results in an inhibition of gametogenesis, that females are more susceptible to inhibition than are males, and that mice that are able to maintain a body fat store in the face of an energetic challenge, are less likely to show reproductive inhibition than those that lose their fat store.

Abstract:
The pouched mouse, Saccostomus campestris is widely distributed south of the Sahara, inhabiting both subtropical and tropical latitudes and a number of different biotic zones, where it breeds seasonally. In North temperate latitudes, reproduction in small mammals is controlled by photoperiod however this cue becomes less influential as latitude decreases towards the equator. The aim of the present study is to establish the role of photoperiod in the environmental control of reproduction in a seasonally breeding small mammal at low latitudes in a highly unpredictable environment.

IGF1 and its receptor IGF1R have been correlated with the proliferation of granulosa cells as well as steroid synthesis.

Stressors generate adaptive responses, including transient suppression of reproductive function.

[Truncated abstract] Despite the costs associated with mating, females of many taxa solicit multiple mates during a single reproductive event (polyandry). Polyandry is clearly adaptive when females gain direct benefits from males at mating. However, polyandry has also been shown to increase female fitness in the absence of direct benefits. Thus, a number of genetic benefit hypotheses have been developed to account for the origin of this behaviour. Although not mutually exclusive, a distinction lays between genetic benefits that propose defense against reproductive failure (nonadditive genetic

Determining the genetic basis of reproductive isolation is a fundamental goal in evolutionary biology. Intrinsic reproductive isolation often arises due to epistasis between divergent interacting genes. The rapid evolution of hybrid male sterility is known to have several causes, including the exposure of recessive X-linked incompatibilities in males and the rapid evolution of male reproductive traits. Despite these insights, little is known about the genetics of reproductive isolation during the early stages of speciation. This deficiency inspired parallel studies on the molecular evoluti

Abstract:
Sexual selection is rampant in Nature, and has produced some of the most beautiful and bizarre traits on Earth. Because females are often promiscuous, sexual selection can continue even after mating, as the sperm of multiple males race to fertilize a limited number of eggs. Though post-copulatory sexual selection is ubiquitous and drives both rapid adaptation and divergence between lineages, we know little about the genetic basis of phenotypes subject to this force. To illuminate one of the important mechanisms by which evolution produces a remarkable diversity of traits, we must identify the

Abstract:
<p>Peat mosses (<i>Sphagnum</i>) are widely distributed and are a major component of mire vegetation and peat throughout the boreal and temperate regions. Most boreal <i>Sphagnum</i> species regularly produce sporophytes, but the ecological role of the spore has been questioned. This study shows that the spores can form a spore bank and have the ability to germinate and contribute to moss establishment whenever suitable conditions occur. The results suggest that spore production is important for explaining the wide distribution and omnipresence of <i>Sphagnum</i> in nutrient-poor wetlands. The
