The discernible and hidden effects of clonality on the genotypic and genetic states of populations: Improving our estimation of clonal rates.

Abstract excerpt

Partial clonality is widespread across the tree of life, but most population genetic models are designed for exclusively clonal or sexual organisms. This gap hampers our understanding of the influence of clonality on evolutionary trajectories and the interpretation of population genetic data. We performed forward simulations of diploid populations at increasing rates of clonality (c), analysed their relationships...
