Delayed mating reduces reproductive output of female European grapevine moth, Lobesia botrana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

Abstract: Virgin females of Lobesia botrana Denis & Schiffermüller were mated at ages of 1, 3, 5, 8, 12 and 16 days and the effect of mating delay on reproductive output assessed. Delayed mating did not affect female mating success but fertilization was reduced in 16-day-old females. Increased mating delays substantially affected daily oviposition pattern and resulted in a significant reduction of both fecundity and fertility, so that mean number of viable eggs laid decreased from 150 to 22 in 1- and 16-day-old mated fe… Show more

“…Therefore, female mating can be delayed by the decrease in availability of male mates even if females have become receptive for mating. Negative effects of delayed mating on spawning, fertilization and offspring quality have been reported in several animal species (McMullen 1969, Paul andAdams 1984;Unnithan and Payne 1991;Torres-Vila et al 2002;Huang and Subramanyam 2003;Milner et al 2007). What kinds of influences do the large decapod crustacean females receive from the delayed mating on their reproductive success?…”

“…A decrease in density of male individuals in a population by the large male-selective harvesting, reduces the frequency of female encounters with males (Moller and Legendre 2001) and then causes difficulies for females to find mates, resulting in loss of mating opportunity and delayed mating of females (Powell et al 1974;Ennis 1980;Smith and Jamieson 1991;Ginsberg and Milner-Gulland 1994;Milner et al 2007). Negative effects of delayed mating on spawning success, fertilization and offspring quality have been reported in several animal species including fishery resources (McMullen 1969;Paul and Adams 1984;Unnithan and Payne 1991;Torres-Vila et al 2002;Huang and Subramanyam 2003; doi:10.5047/absm.2012.00503.0067 © 2012 TERRAPUB, Tokyo.

“…Middle aged and old female ladybird beetles preferentially mate with the middle aged and older males (Pervez et al 2004). Virgin female European grapevine moths display decreased fecundity and fertility if mated later in life but have increased survivorship (Torres-Vila et al 2002). Mediterranean flies if kept on a sugar diet do not produce eggs and are in a type of "waiting mode" (Carey et al, 1998a).…”

“…Heliothis virescens (IO = 0,77), quando privada de alimentação, teve sua fecundidade reduzida, o que pode levar à hipótese de que a mesma ainda requer recursos energéticos na fase adulta para reprodução. A redução da fecundidade na ausência de alimento pode ter ocorrido devido à reabsorção de oócitos pelas fêmeas para a realização de outras atividades metabólicas dada à privação de alimentos (Boggs & Ross 1993, Rosenheim et al 2000, Torres-Vila et al 2002 ou ainda pela pressão de oviposição exercida pelo desenvolvimento do ovário (Opp & Prokopy 1986), levando à deposição apenas dos ovos já maduros. Nesse caso, fi ca evidente que a maturação de novos oócitos é dependente da nutrição nessa fase e que os nutrientes transferidos pelo macho junto ao fl uído seminal não substituem os nutrientes adquiridos via alimentação, caso os machos dessa espécie realizem esse tipo de investimento.…”
