Cooperation promotes the evolution of separate sexes from hermaphrodites with unitary growth.

Journal of theoretical biology - 21 Jan 2014

Xu Ying, Yang Jiang-Nan

Abstract excerpt

Most animals have specialized into separate sexes but most plants remain hermaphroditic. The underlining cause for this is still unclear. Here we address this question by evolutionary stable strategy analysis and exact calculation of frequency-dependent selection and genetic drift in geographically structured populations. Reproductive investments of hermaphrodites are divided into male and female functions, and...
