Abstract excerpt

The New Zealand stick insect genus Acanthoxyla Uvarov is extremely unusual among higher taxa of animals in that all known species are obligate parthenogens. We have used a combination of the mitochondrial DNA genes cytochrome oxidase subunits I and II, 28S nuclear ribosomal RNA, and the two single-copy nuclear genes elongation factor 1alpha and phosphoglucose isomerase to test hypotheses on the role of...
