Wild-type females that have been previously mated to males expressing PebIIdsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI subsequently remate more quickly to wild-type males than do females that had previously been mated to control males.
Wild-type females mated to males expressing PebIIdsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4tub show no significant difference in fecundity, egg-adult survival of the progeny or progeny production in the first 24 hours compared to wild-type females mated to control males. There is also no difference in mating duration.
