Postmating but prezygotic (PMPZ) interactions are increasingly recognized as a potentially important early‐stage barrier in the evolution of reproductive isolation. A recent study described a potential example between populations of the same species: single matings between Drosophila montana populations resulted in differential fertilisation success because of the inability of sperm from one population (Vancouver) to penetrate the eggs of the other population (Colorado). As the natural mating system of D. montana is polyandrous (females remate rapidly), we set up double matings of all possible crosses between the same populations to test whether competitive effects between ejaculates influence this PMPZ isolation. We measured premating isolation in no‐choice tests, female fecundity, fertility and egg‐to‐adult viability after single and double matings as well as second‐male paternity success (P2). Surprisingly, we found no PMPZ reproductive isolation between the two populations under a competitive setting, indicating no difficulty of sperm from Vancouver males to fertilize Colorado eggs after double matings. While there were subtle differences in how P2 changed over time, suggesting that Vancouver males’ sperm are somewhat less competitive in a first‐male role within Colorado females, these effects did not translate into differences in overall P2. Fertilisation success can thus differ dramatically between competitive and noncompetitive conditions, perhaps because the males that mate second produce higher quality ejaculates in response to sperm competition. We suggest that unlike in more divergent species comparisons, where sperm competition typically increases reproductive isolation, ejaculate tailoring can reduce the potential for PMPZ isolation when recently diverged populations interbreed.

Sexual and postmating reproductive isolation between allopatric Drosophila montana populations suggest speciation potential
Jennings, Jackson; Mazzi, Dominique; Ritchie, Michael; Hoikkala, Anneli (BioMed Central, 2011)Background - Widely distributed species with populations adapted to different environmental conditions can provide valuable opportunities for tracing the onset of reproductive incompatibilities and their role in the ... -
Kin selection in interactions between gametes : Gamete competition, gamete limitation, and sex allocation
Myllymaa, Lauri; Lehtonen, Jussi (Frontiers Media, 2023)Kin selection on one hand, and gamete interactions in post-ejaculatory sexual selection on the other are two major research themes that have risen to prominence over the past half century and have simultaneously developed ... -
Laboratory relationships between adult lifetime reproductive success and fitness surrogates in a Drosophila littoralis population.
Pekkala, Nina; Kotiaho, Janne Sakari; Puurtinen, Mikael (Public Library of Science, 2011)The difficulties in measuring total fitness of individuals necessitate the use of fitness surrogates in ecological and evolutionary studies. These surrogates can be different components of fitness (e.g. survival or fecundity), ... -
Multiple mechanisms of cryptic female choice act on intraspecific male variation in Drosophila simulans
Ala-Honkola, Outi; Manier, Mollie K. (Springer, 2016)Postcopulatory sexual selection can arise when females mate with multiple males and is usually mediated by an interaction between the sexes. Cryptic female choice (CFC) is one form of postcopulatory sexual selection that ... -
Chromosomal Inversions and the Demography of Speciation in Drosophila montana and Drosophila flavomontana
Poikela, Noora; Laetsch, Dominik R; Hoikkala, Ville; Lohse, Konrad; Kankare, Maaria (Oxford University Press, 2024)Chromosomal inversions may play a central role in speciation given their ability to locally reduce recombination and therefore genetic exchange between diverging populations. We analyzed long- and short-read whole-genome ...
