Genomic consequences and selection efficacy in sympatric sexual versus asexual kelps
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Genetic diversity can influence resilience and adaptative capacity of organisms to environmental change. Genetic diversity within populations is largely structured by reproduction, with the prevalence of asexual versus sexual reproduction often ...

Muller's ratchet and mutational meltdowns [PDF]
, 1993 We extend our earlier work on the role of deleterious mutations in the extinction of obligately asexual populations. First, we develop analytical models for mutation accumulation that obviate the need for time-consuming computer simulations in certain ...

The mutational meltdown in asexual populations [PDF]
, 1993 Loss of fitness due to the accumulation of deleterious mutations appears to be inevitable in small, obligately asexual populations, as these are incapable of reconstituting highly fit genotypes by recombination or back mutation. The cumulative buildup of

The role of sexual vs. asexual recruitment of Artemisia wudanica in transition zone habitats between inter-dune lowlands and active dunes in Inner Mongolia, China [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2016 Artemisia wudanica is an endemic, perennial, pioneering psammophyte species in the sand dune ecosystems of western Horqin Sand Land in northern China. However, no studies have addressed how sexual and asexual reproduction modes of A.

Asexual reproduction strategies and blooming potential in Scyphozoa [PDF]
, 2014 Scyphistomae show different modes of propagation, occasionally allowing the sudden release of great numbers of medusae through strobilation leading to so-called jellyfish blooms.

Is Parthenogenesis Sexual or Asexual Reproduction? [PDF]
Nature, 1950 CYTOLOGISTS and others commonly refer to parthenogenesis as asexual reproduction. This usage is, for example, to be found in the books of Wilson1, Darlington2, and White3, along with the facts that indicate that parthenogenesis is a derivative of normal sexual reproduction.
