Deleterious alleles and differential viability in progeny of natural hemiclonal frogs.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 May 2002

Guex Gaston-Denis, Hotz Hansjurg, Semlitsch Raymond D

Abstract excerpt

Abstract.-Spontaneous deleterious mutations are expected to accumulate through Muller's ratchet in clonally reproducing organisms and may lead to their extinction. We study deleterious mutations and their effects in a system of European frogs. Rana esculenta (RL), natural hybrids R. ridibunda (RR) X R. lessonae (LL), reproduce hemiclonally; both sexes exclude the L genome in the germ line and produce unrecombined...
