Evidence for Significant Skew and Low Heritability of Competitive Male Mating Success in the Yellow Fever Mosquito Aedes aegypti by Claudia A. S. Wyer, Vladimir Trajanovikj, Brian Hollis, Alongkot Ponlawat, Lauren J. Cator

“…However, it is not known what proportion of swarming males successfully mate with females, how many females each male is able to mate with, and to what extent any variation in the male mating success phenotype can be explained by genetic variation. Here, we describe a novel assay to quantify individual male mating success in the presence of operational sex ratios characteristic of Ae. aegypti. …”
