Sublethal heat reduces overall reproductive investment and male allocation in a simultaneously hermaphroditic snail species Open
The exposure to sublethally high temperature reduces reproductive performance in diverse organisms. Although this effect has been particularly emphasized for males or male reproductive functioning, it remains largely unknown whether the ef…

A systematic map of studies testing the relationship between temperature and animal reproduction Open
Exposure to extreme temperatures can negatively affect animal reproduction, by disrupting the ability of individuals to produce any offspring (fertility), or the number of offspring produced by fertile individuals (fecundity). This has imp…

Sublethal heat reduces overall reproductive investment and male allocation in a simultaneously hermaphroditic snail species Open
A well-known effect of sub-lethal temperature exposure in a diversity of species is a decrease in reproductive performance. Although this effect has been particularly emphasized for males or male reproductive functioning, it remains to be …

Does climate warming influence sexual chemical signaling? Open
Global climate is changing at a rapid pace and the pivotal question is if the rate and extent of species’ responses to stressful events enable them to persist in a changing world. Although the consequences of rapid environmental changes on…

New perspectives on meeting and mating Open
In this special issue, several authors have been invited in order to provide new perspectives on a set of phenomena related to sexual reproduction. The idea has been to offer a journey that explores sexual communication and mating practice…

Male reproductive suppression: not a social affair Open
In the animal kingdom there are countless strategies via which males optimize their reproductive success when faced with male-male competition. These male strategies typically fall into two main categories: pre- and post-copulatory competi…

Transgenerational effects of nutrition are different for sons and daughters Open
Food shortage is an important selective factor shaping animal life‐history trajectories. Yet, despite its role, many aspects of the interaction between parental and offspring food environments remain unclear. In this study, we measured dev…
