    Department of Agriculture, Laboratory of Applied Zoology and Parasitology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 540 06 Thessaloniki, Greece
    Oecologia 138:127-34. 2004
    ..These results support the hypothesis that intense sexual signalling indicates longer life span. We discuss the importance of age-specific behavioural studies for understanding the evolution of male life histories...

    Department of Statistics, University of California at Davis, One Shields Avenue, Davis, CA 95616, USA
    Proc Biol Sci 276:4409-16. 2009
    ..Our findings are consistent with an adaptive mechanism whereby trajectories of fertility evolve in response to specific constraints inherent in the population survival schedules...

    Stella A Papanastasiou
    Department of Agriculture, Crop Production and Rural Environment, University of Thessaly, Phytokou Street, N Ionia 384 46 Magnisias, Greece
    J Insect Physiol 57:1368-74. 2011
    ..Aging positively affected the amount of spermatozoids in testes of both mated and nonmated males. No significant differences were observed on the amount of spermatozoids between mated and nonmated males...

    Byron I Katsoyannos
    Laboratory of Applied Zoology and Parasitology, Department of Agriculture, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 541 24 Thessaloniki, Greece
    J Econ Entomol 97:21-6. 2004
    ..Baited spheres were more C. capitata female selective than either wet or dry McPhail traps. The importance of these findings in developing lure and kill devices for the Mediterranean fruit fly is discussed...

    J Insect Physiol 58:1128-35. 2012
    ..Extension of the life cycle of some individuals in R. cerasi populations in association with prolonged dormancy is likely a bet-hedging strategy...

    Mech Ageing Dev 127:680-6. 2006
    ..A high level of recent calling activity is found to be associated with increased remaining lifetime for an individual male fly, while calling activity at early ages plays no role for remaining longevity...
