Parthenogenesis and the Evolution of Anisogamy.

Cells - 18 Sept 2021

Constable George W A, Kokko Hanna

Abstract excerpt

Recently, it was pointed out that classic models for the evolution of anisogamy do not take into account the possibility of parthenogenetic reproduction, even though sex is facultative in many relevant taxa (e.g., algae) that harbour both anisogamous and isogamous species. Here, we complement this recent analysis with an approach where we assume that the relationship between progeny size and its survival may...
