A single locus determines thelytokous parthenogenesis of laying honeybee workers (Apis mellifera capensis).

Heredity - 1 May 2005

Lattorff H M G, Moritz R F A, Fuchs S

Abstract excerpt

The evolution and maintenance of parthenogenetic species are a puzzling issue in evolutionary biology. Although the genetic mechanisms that act to restore diploidy are well studied, the underlying genes that cause the switch from sexual reproduction to parthenogenesis have not been analysed. There are several species that are polymorphic for sexual and parthenogenetic reproduction, which may have a genetic basis....
