First, to determine which factors (conceptual understanding, religious factors, or doctrinal understanding) predicted an overall acceptance of evolution, we ran a general linear model (GLM) multiple regression analysis with the KEE, demographic factors, our religiosity measure, and the ULSE as predictors of the MATE (see Table 3 for complete list of variables entered into model).
But she cautions that it remains to be seen whether multiple mating has the same benefits in the wild, where other mating behaviors come into play.
As a result, multiple mating by females was mostly seen as a consequence of sexual conflict and sexual coercion by males [ 38].
The existence of sperm-limitation and multiple mating within C. remanei (Fig. 1; see also [ 22]) suggest the opportunity for strong sexual selection among males and thereby the potential for sexual conflict [ 33].
If F0 females in the singly mated treatment retained brood production, then this can be seen as an advantage of multiple mating over single mating.
However, it is rare to hear of multiple mating types.
"I was a bit discouraged by the whole Australian system, seeing multiple mates that played representative rugby with me not getting opportunities, and when they did get one, they'd fall out of favour for some bizarre reason.
It therefore remains to be seen what causes female sperm use to be delayed following multiple mating, and whether it is adaptive for males and/or for females.
Most studies on multiple mating have focused on the good genes and compatible genes hypotheses, whereas the genetic diversity hypothesis has received relatively little attention (but see Cohas, Yoccoz, & Allainé, 2007; McLeod & Marshall, 2009; Schmoll, Schurr, Winkel, Epplen, & Lubjuhn, 2007).
According to Leonard, multiple mating types (i.e., more than two) are advantageous if time is of the essence.
