The distribution of thelytoky, arrhenotoky and androgenesis among castes in the eusocial Hymenoptera
Insectes Sociaux, 2018Thelytokous parthenogenesis is the production of females from unfertilized eggs. In this review we categorize the known thelytokous eusocial Hymenopterans (mostly ants) by their modes of worker and queen reproduction. The resultant tabulation reveals that: (1) there are no species in which queens are thelytokous and workers are exclusively ...

In most honey bees, unfertilized eggs develop into haploid males via arrhenotokous parthenogenesis. The Cape honey bee (Apis mellifera capensis) is different. Although mated queens always produce females sexually, if workers lay unfertilized eggs the eggs develop into diploid females via thelytokous parthenogenesis. Thelytoky in A. m.

A Fundamental Theorem of Natural Selection for Sex Linkage or Arrhenotoky
The American Naturalist, 1972Equation (11) is a general equation for the change in geometric mean fitness at a male haploid or sex-linked locus when the selection intensity is small. The rate of change in fitness depends on the additive genetic variance in fitness, which is defined as the variance of the additive genotypic values when the additive model of gene action assumes no ...

A cytological demonstration of arrhenotoky in three mites of the family Phytoseiidae
Chromosoma, 1964Chromosome numbers of Phytoseiulus persimilis. Amblyseius fallacis, and Typhlodromus caudiglans were determined in lacto-propionic orcein squashes of developing eggs. Eggs of all species had either four or eight chromosomes: this indicates arrhenotoky (2 n = 8). All chromosomes are acrocentric; one of P. persimilis and one of A.

Parthenogenesis is reported in three soft scales with 2n=16. In the unfertilized eggs of all three, oogenesis is normal and diploidy is restored by the fusion of the division products of the haploid female pronucleus. In Lecanium putmani Phillips 12 of 13 uninseminated females collected in the wild produced only males.
