    Discrimination between lineage-specific shelters by bat- and human-associated bed bugs does not constitute a stable reproductive barrier

  • Original language description

    The common bed bug Cimex lectularius, has been recently shown to constitute two host races, which are likely in the course of incipient speciation. The human associated lineage splits from the ancestral bat associated species deep in the history of modern humans, likely even prior to the Neolithic Period and establishment of the first permanent human settlements. Hybridization experiments between these two lineages show that postmating reproductive barriers are incomplete due to local variation. As mating takes place in off host refugia marked by aggregation semiochemicals, the present investigation tested the hypothesis that bed bugs use these semiochemicals to differentiate between refugia marked by bat and human associated bed bugs, this would constitute a precopulation isolation mechanism. The preference for lineage specific odors was tested using artificial shelters conditioned by a group of either male or female bed bugs. Adult males were assayed individually in four choice assays that included
