Remating and sperm competition in replicate populations of Drosophila melanogaster adapted to alternative environments. by Devin Arbuthnott, Aneil F Agrawal, Howard D Rundle

“…However, the propensity of females to remate diverged significantly among the eight populations with no evidence of any environmental effect, consistent with sexual conflict promoting diversification even in the absence of ecological differences. On the other hand, females adapted to one environment (ethanol) tended to produce a higher proportion of offspring sired by their first mate as compared to those adapted to the other (cadmium) environment, suggesting ecologically-based divergence of this conflict phenotype. …”
