Elimination of altered karyotypes by sexual reproduction preserves species identity.

Genome - 1 May 2007

Heng Henry H Q

Abstract excerpt

Resolving the persistence of sexual reproduction despite its overwhelming costs (known as the paradox of sex) is one of the most persistent challenges of evolutionary biology. In thinking about this paradox, the focus has traditionally been on the evolutionary benefits of genetic recombination in generating offspring diversity and purging deleterious mutations. The similarity of pattern between evolution of...
