Clonal diversity driven by parasitism in a freshwater snail.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Nov 2013

Dagan Y, Liljeroos K, Jokela J, Ben-Ami F

Abstract excerpt

One explanation for the widespread abundance of sexual reproduction is the advantage that genetically diverse sexual lineages have under strong pressure from virulent coevolving parasites. Such parasites are believed to track common asexual host genotypes, resulting in negative frequency-dependen...
