sexual dimorphism

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Sex-specific microhabitat use is associated with sex-biased thermal physiology in Anolis lizards
    Michael L. Logan, Lauren K. Neel, Daniel J. Nicholson, Andrew J. Stokes, Christina L. Miller, Albert K. Chung, John David Curlis, Kaitlin M. Keegan, Adam A. Rosso, Inbar Maayan, Edite Folfas, Claire E. Williams, Brianna Casement, Maria A. Gallegos Koyner, Dylan J. Padilla Perez, Cleo H. Falvey, Sean M. Alexander, Kristin L. Charles, Zackary A. Graham, W. Owen McMillan, Jonathan B. Losos, Christian L. Cox
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 : jeb.235697 doi: 10.1242/jeb.235697 Published 16 December 2020
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Early-life hypoxia alters adult physiology and reduces stress resistance and lifespan in Drosophila
    Danielle M. Polan, Mohammed Alansari, Byoungchun Lee, Savraj S. Grewal
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb226027 doi: 10.1242/jeb.226027 Published 23 November 2020

    Summary: Early-life hypoxia exposure in Drosophila leads to a subsequent change in adult physiology that is associated with reduced stress tolerance and shortened lifespan.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Complex multi-modal sensory integration and context specificity in colour preferences of a pierid butterfly
    G. S. Balamurali, Saloni Rose, Hema Somanathan, Ullasa Kodandaramaiah
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb223271 doi: 10.1242/jeb.223271 Published 1 July 2020

    Summary: Cross-modal integration of information negatively affects colour learning in a butterfly.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Sex-specific molecular specialization and activity rhythm-dependent gene expression in honey bee antennae
    Rikesh Jain, Axel Brockmann
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb217406 doi: 10.1242/jeb.217406 Published 22 June 2020

    Summary: Gene expression differences between honey bee male (specialist) and female (generalist) antennae identify differences in molecular specialization and reveal new genes involved in odorant detection.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Variation in sexual brain size dimorphism over the breeding cycle in the three-spined stickleback
    Séverine D. Buechel, Kristina Noreikiene, Jacquelin DeFaveri, Elisavet Toli, Niclas Kolm, Juha Merilä
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb194464 doi: 10.1242/jeb.194464 Published 9 April 2019

    Summary: Sex-specific changes in brain size over the breeding cycle in the three-spined stickleback may be the reason for varying estimates of sexual brain size dimorphism across studies of this species.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Linking developmental diet to adult foraging choice in Drosophila melanogaster
    Lucy Rebecca Davies, Mads F. Schou, Torsten N. Kristensen, Volker Loeschcke
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb175554 doi: 10.1242/jeb.175554 Published 11 May 2018

    Summary: Drosophila melanogaster shows sexual dimorphism in the effect of developmental diet on adult foraging choice, and life-stage dependency of the effects of diet on lifespan.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    The effect of air resistance on the jump performance of a small parasitoid wasp, Anagyrus pseudococci (Encyrtidae)
    Tomer Urca, Gal Ribak
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb177600 doi: 10.1242/jeb.177600 Published 11 April 2018

    Summary: In a small sexually dimorphic parasitoid wasp, smaller males pay a higher penalty of air resistance during take-off jumps. Nevertheless, both sexes achieve outstanding jump heights compared with their body size.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Nutrient intake determines post-maturity molting in the golden orb-web spider Nephila pilipes (Araneae: Araneidae)
    Ren-Chung Cheng, Shichang Zhang, Yu-Chun Chen, Chia-Yi Lee, Yi-Ling Chou, Hui-Ying Ye, Dakota Piorkowski, Chen-Pan Liao, I.-Min Tso
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 2260-2264; doi: 10.1242/jeb.153569

    Summary: Nutrition determines post-maturity molting (PMM) in the orb-web spider Nephila pilipes, suggesting PMM may have evolved as an adaptation to diverse foraging conditions during range expansion.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Contrasting effects of increased yolk testosterone content on development and oxidative status in gull embryos
    Marco Parolini, Andrea Romano, Cristina Daniela Possenti, Manuela Caprioli, Diego Rubolini, Nicola Saino
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 625-633; doi: 10.1242/jeb.145235

    Summary: Increased yolk testosterone concentration in yellow-legged gulls promotes body mass growth of embryos but reduces brain size. Moreover, sex differences in brain size exist among control embryos.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Testosterone activates sexual dimorphism including male-typical carotenoid but not melanin plumage pigmentation in a female bird
    Willow R. Lindsay, Douglas G. Barron, Michael S. Webster, Hubert Schwabl
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 3091-3099; doi: 10.1242/jeb.135384

    Highlighted Article: Female red-backed fairy-wrens express male-typical traits in response to exogenous and endogenous testosterone, including carotenoid-pigmented plumage, darkened bill and an enlarged sperm storage organ, but are constrained in production of melanin-pigmented plumage.
