Abstract excerpt
The variability of heat resistance of gametes in amphibians and molluscs has been analysed in terms of the problem of direct thermal selection at presygotic stages of ontogenesis. A high variability in gamete heat resistance was revealed both within the frame of a population of animals and in a p...
