Cryptic sex? Estimates of genome exchange in unisexual mole salamanders (Ambystoma sp.).

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 2016

Gibbs H Lisle, Denton Robert D

Abstract excerpt

Cryptic sex has been argued to explain the exceptional longevity of certain parthenogenetic vertebrate lineages, yet direct measurements of genetic exchange between sexual and apparently parthenogenetic forms are rare. Female unisexual mole salamanders (Ambystoma sp.) are the oldest known unisexual vertebrate lineage (~5 million years), and one hypothesis for their persistence is that allopolyploid female...
