摘要: If cryptic female choice exists, observations on mating behaviour will not reflect the actual patterns of paternity. Genetic profiling techniques are needed to identify paternity (and sperm storage) that deviate from expectations based behavioural observations. Our chapter addresses this problem in two parts. The first provides a critical review concept leading set criteria required demonstrate its occurrence. Second, we explore repertoire molecular methods available answer certain questions about insects. potential and limitations polymerase chain reaction-based single locus multilocus DNA fingerprint discussed along with different options analysing data. Two case studies illustrate storage usage odonates might enable females control
