This research focuses on sperm evolution using Macrostomum flatworms as a model. It aims to understand the genetic basis of sperm morphology and production, and how sexual selection influences these traits, enhancing our knowledge of reproductive biology.
Spermatogenesis is of fundamental importance to reproduction and fertility, yet several of its features remain enigmatic.
Why, for example, do sperm display such extraordinary morphological diversity, when their basic function differs little from one species to another?
And why are sperm produced in such large quantities, vastly exceeding the number of eggs produced by females?
Sexual selection, the evolutionary force proposed by Charles Darwin 150 years ago, provides the most promising framewor…
