ANTAGONISTIC SEX. “Overall, our results provide strong evidence that much of the molecular interplay between the sexes that occurs after mating has been shaped by conflict between the sexes and is generally not cooperative in nature. The idea that antagonism dominates male–female interactions has received support from many previous experimental evolution studies. Our results add to this body of work by demonstrating the breadth of this antagonism in the expression of genes involved in post-copulatory interactions.”
