Genomic Determination of Reproductive Mode in Facultatively Parthenogenetic Opiliones.

open access: yesJournal of Heredity, 2021
Sexual reproduction may pose myriad short-term costs to females. Despite these costs, sexual reproduction is near ubiquitous. Facultative parthenogenesis is theorized to mitigate some of the costs of sex, as individuals can participate in occasional sex ...
