We raised crickets from two populations in Hawaii (O'ahu and Kaua'i) and two wing morphs (flatwing males, which cannot sing; and normal-wing males, which can sing), under conditions of perceived sperm competition risk (presence of male advertisement song) or its absence (quiet). In adulthood, males were euthanized, frozen, measured for body size and mass; their accessory glands (which produce seminal fluid) were dissected out and preserved for quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis. We examined the effects of population, wing morph, and presence or absence of perceived sperm competition risk on male testes mass and production of three seminal fluid proteins (SFPs) implicated in male paternity success. The dataset includes a spreadsheet reporting data, including: male population of origin, wing morph, experimental acoustic treatment (song present or absent), body mass, pronotum width, and qPCR values for each of the three SFPs. It also includes R code used to analyze the data and generate the figures. Finally, it includes acoustic files and MATLAB code that were used to generate the stimulus we used to experimentally induce the perceived threat of sperm competition.
