Male accessory gland
Encyclopedia
Male accessory glands in humans are the seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and the bulbourethral glands.
In insects, male accessory glands produce products that mix with the sperm to protect and preserve them. Some insecticides can induce an increase in the protein content of the male accessory glands of certain types of insects. This has the unintended effect of increasing the number of offspring they produce.
