The cost of sex revisited: effects of male gamete output of hermaphrodites that are asexual in their female capacity.

Journal of theoretical biology - 21 Dec 1998

Joshi A, Moody M E

Abstract excerpt

The genetic cost of sexual reproduction has been attributed to two causes in mathematical formulations: male function or genome dilution. We develop and analyse a genetic model that shows that both costs occur, depending upon the conditions. The model differs from previous formulations in that the level of output and fertilization success of male gametes produced by hermaphrodites that are asexual in their female...
