Genome elimination from the germline cells in diploid and triploid male water frogs Pelophylax esculentus
14 Oct 2022
Abstract excerpt
Hybridogenesis is a hemiclonal reproductive strategy in diploid and triploid hybrids. Our study model is a frog P. esculentus (diploid RL and triploids RLL and RRL), a natural hybrid between P. lessonae (LL) and P. ridibundus (RR). Hybridogenesis relies on elimination of one genome (L or R) from gonocytes (G) in tadpole gonads during prespermatogenesis, but not from spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) in adults....
