Males on demand: the environmental-neuro-endocrine control of male sex determination in daphnids.

The FEBS journal - 1 Nov 2015

LeBlanc Gerald A, Medlock Elizabeth K

Abstract excerpt

Branchiopod crustaceans (e.g., Daphnia sp.) and some other taxa utilize both asexual and sexual reproduction to maximize population sustainability. The decision to switch from asexual to sexual reproduction is triggered by environmental cues that foretell a potentially detrimental change in environmental conditions. This review describes the cascade of events beginning with environmental cues and ending with...
