Sperm Competition and Sperm Length in Shorebirds ’
We investigated how sperm morphology varies across 16 species of shorebirds in the Scolopacidae, Charadriidae, and Jacanidae. Sperm were significantly longer in nonmonogamous than in socially monogamous species. Nonmonogamous species also I Received 27 January 1999.

متن کاملSperm Vacuoles and Reproductive Outcome
It is estimated that the male factor contributes to half of the infertility in couples attending for assisted reproductive techniques (ART). Therefore the semen analysis remains the starting point to evaluate main causes of infertility and in case of oligospermic semen the assessment of sperm morphology may help to choose the best spermatozoon to use for the intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IC...
متن کاملSperm morphology and reproductive success
fertilization potential, decisions on how to improve sperm morphology remain difficult to address. Smoking, alcohol consumption, caffeine intake and drug use can affect fertility; however, a conclusive connection between these factors and sperm morphology has not been demonstrated. Furthermore, use of dietary supplements and vitamins has not been shown to directly affect sperm morphology. While...
متن کاملDevelopmental plasticity
Developmental plasticity - the concept that adaptation to changing and unfavorable environmental conditions are possible but may come at the price of compromised health potentials - has evolutionary grounding as it facilitates survival but dissents with fundamental evolutionary principles in that it may advance the lesser fit. It is an important cornerstone of the Developmental Origins of Healt...
متن کاملDevelopmental plasticity
Early life constraints affecting phenotype in later life is a trend consistently observed across different species. Of particular relevance to evolutionary medicine are the effects of intra-uterine growth leading to diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and other age-related disorders. The broader question of conditions under which such developmental plasticity or predictive adaptive r...
