Selection and maintenance of androdioecy in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Genetics - 1 Mar 2002

Stewart Andrew D, Phillips Patrick C

Abstract excerpt

Caenorhabditis elegans is an androdioecious nematode composed of selfing hermaphrodites and rare males. A model of male maintenance demonstrates that selfing rates in hermaphrodites cannot be too high or else the frequency of males will be driven down to the rate of spontaneous nondisjunction of...
