از تارنمای خود نگراپرداز (Robin Baker):

KILLER SPERM SCIENCE: There is a rumour going around that the concept of killer sperm is dead: “repeatedly squashed” in the words of Tim Birkhead in one of his several attacks; “discredited” according to the anonymous author of the original Wikipedia entry for Sperm Wars. Repeatedly? Search as I might, I can only find one publication that presents new data and that tries (very hard) to kill-off killer sperm. Admittedly as early as 1997 Tim warned that the work was coming, even if he did at the time imply that it had nothing to do with him. Then two years later the work was published – by the Royal Society, no less – with Tim as one of the three authors. Later that year it was summarised in Science and Tim referred to it again in the Preface to his book Promiscuity. One piece of work quoted four times – maybe that’s what Tim meant by “repeatedly” – and it has been uncritically repeated ever since. Even the original Wikipedia author rather underhandedly quoted two of these publications in an attempt, presumably, to double the justification of his/her use of the word “discredited.”


If I have missed other publications of data, somebody please let me know and I will both apologise and re-write this part of my blog accordingly. But until then, as far as I am aware, there is just the single publication, and that is the 1999 Royal Society paper on the work carried out by Tim Birkhead and his two colleagues from Sheffield University....

من قبل از اینکه پست قبلیم رو بدم این تارنما رو هم تا حدودی خودندم.این چیزی رو هم که شما نقل قول کردین بیشتر دعوای خاله زنکی هست تا بحث علمی...در هر صورت هنوز هم مساله اسپرم های جنگجو چیزی بیشتر از یه فرضیه نیست...
