The geography of sex: sexual conflict, environmental gradients and local loss of sex in facultatively parthenogenetic animals.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 5 Oct 2018

Burke Nathan W, Bonduriansky Russell

Abstract excerpt

Obligately asexual organisms tend to occur at higher altitudes or latitudes and occupy larger ranges than their obligately sexual relatives-a phenomenon called geographical parthenogenesis. Some facultatively parthenogenetic organisms that reproduce both sexually and asexually also exhibit spatial variation in reproductive mode. Theory suggests that sexual conflict and mate limitation can determine the relative...
