Repeated convergent evolution of parthenogenesis in Acariformes (Acari)
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 321-337, January 2021., 2021 We investigated the radiation of Acariformes and reconstructed their ancestral mode of reproduction using 18S rDNA. We found that (a) Acariformes as well as Oribatida evolved from a sexual ancestor, (b) species‐rich parthenogenetic taxa radiated independently at least four times in Acariformes, (c) parthenogenesis additionally evolved frequently in ...
