ProteomicsSperm proteome of apyrene and eupyrene sperm in Carolina Sphinx moth Manduca sexta, and monarch butterfly Danaus plexippus
All but the most basal Lepidopteran species produce two sperm morphs. Only one of these morphs is capable of completing karyogamy and producing offspring, this morph contains the correct genetic complement and is termed eupyrene sperm. Apyrene sperm, on the other hand, is completely devoid of nucle...

ProteomicsCombined sperm proteome of the monarch butterfly Danaus plexippus
We characterized sperm from the seminal vesicles of male monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus), in triplicate, identifying 548 high confidence proteins. As with all but the most basal lepidopteran species male monarch butterflies are sperm heteromorphic, producing fertilization competent and anucle...
