Data for: On the expression of reproductive plasticity in Drosophila melanogaster females in spatial and socially varying environments

In this study, we examined the extent of reproductive plasticity expressed in mating rates, mating latencies, mating durations, and offspring production in female fruit flies, <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i>, that encountered different numbers of males in different sized chambers.

This .csv dataset contains data collected from vials of flies, <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> in which a single female fly was placed into a vial with either 1 or 2 males, in which the size of the chamber was small or large, and watched closely for 90 minutes. The occurrence of mating, the time at which mating started (measured in seconds), the duration of mating (measured in seconds) was recorded. The flies were left undisturbed in the vials overnight before being discarded, and the number of offspring that eclosed from those vials was recorded.
