Mito‐nuclear effects on reproductive phenotypes are stronger in females. (A) Male fertility was not significantly affected by the mito‐nuclear incompatibility (mtDNA × nuclear: F _{1, 107} = 0.185, P = 0.668). (B) This was in contrast to strong effects of mito‐nuclear genotype on female fecundity (mtDNA × nuclear: F _{1, 31} = 16.976, P = 0.0003), with females of the incompatible (simw ⁵⁰¹);OreR genotype laying on average 48% the number of eggs produced by (ore);OreR females. Female fecundity data from Meiklejohn et al. (2013) are total eggs produced over 10 days by individual females for n = 7–10 females per genotype. Whiskers on boxplots represent interquartile ranges. Green denotes the mitochondrial‐nuclear incompatible genotype, as in other figures.
