Sexual activity in macropterus and brahcypterous males of a flightless gug, Pyrrhocoris apterus (L.) (Heteroptera)

Original language description

The long-winged (macropterous) and short-winged (brachypterous) adult males of Pyrrhocoris apterus (L.) from temperate (Czech Republic) and Mediterranean (Israel) populations were analysed for the sexual acticity and the functional activity af their accessory glands. The sexual activity of the males reared either under long-day (18L-6D) or short-day (12l-12D) conditions was determined by their capability to mate with 5-day-old reprductive females of the brachypterous morph and to fertilize the eggs. Thefunctional activity of accessory glands was characterized by the presence of a specific immuno-marker. Sexual activity of fasting macropterous males from both temperate and Mediterranean populations was almost as high as that observed in the reproductive brachypterous ones. These findings were also confirmed by an immunotest. Contary to the temperate macropterous males, the feeding arrest in temperate macropterous females was coupled with a non-diapause inhibition of reproduction in spi
