Attempted Induction of Gynogenesis in Chickens

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1975
Dark Cornish and White Leghorn hens were divided into a virgin group and a group inseminated with semen that had been irradiated with 5,000r. of X rays. Two replicate trials were performed, one during winter and the second during summer. Two parthenogenetic embryos were found among 1,417 virgin eggs incubated for 24 hours. No other development was seen

Sexual conflict as a constraint on asexual reproduction: an empirical review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2681-2706, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Theory predicts that facultatively asexual animals, which can leverage the advantages of both sexual and asexual reproduction, should outcompete obligately sexual and obligately asexual animals. Yet, paradoxically, obligate sexual reproduction predominates in many animal lineages, while the most flexible form of facultative asexuality (i.e ...

Factors increasing the efficiency of sugar beet gynogenesis in vitro culture

open access: yesЖурнал биологических наук и сельского хозяйства
The aim of this article is to systematize the factors determining the efficiency of sugar beet gynogenesis and to substantiate a scheme for experimental testing of conditions for producing haploid and doubled haploid plants. The study analyzed literature

Niche partitioning among sexual and unisexual Ambystoma salamanders

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
Organisms that have ecologically similar sexual and asexual forms present an evolutionary puzzle, as theory predicts that eventually one form should eliminate the other.

Using asexual vertebrates to study genome evolution and animal physiology: Banded (Fundulus diaphanus) x Common Killifish (F. heteroclitus) hybrid lineages as a model system

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2020
Wild, asexual, vertebrate hybrids have many characteristics that make them good model systems for studying how genomes evolve and epigenetic modifications influence animal physiology.

Twenty years of cucurbit breeding research at the World Vegetable Center

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 65, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract The contribution of cucurbit crops to global food and nutrition security is immense. They are economically and nutritionally important to smallholder farmers in Asia, who account for 81% of global cucurbit production. World Vegetable Center (WorldVeg) has been focused for 20 years on four species: bitter gourd (Momordica charantia), ridge ...

EFFECT OF PLANT EXTRACTS ON THE MORPHOGENETIC POTENTIAL OF ISOLATED ORGANS OF BRASSICA OLERACEA L. IN VITRO

open access: yesОвощи России, 2015
The role of plant extracts in the process of induction of embryogenic structures and its following development in plants is revealed. Thus, the addition in the culture medium of the extracts diluted in DMSO increases the rate of gynoand androgenesis on 2.

Efficiency of the use for doubled haploids in onion breeding (Allium cepa L.)

open access: yesОвощи России, 2022
Relevance. In onion breeding, quickly obtain aligned material is an urgent target for create parent forms of heterosis hybrids. Using classical methods with helping of backcrosses, this is achieved in 10-12 years. Using the technology of doubled haploids,
