Asexual reproduction and vegetative growth of Bionectria ochroleuca in response to temperature and photoperiod

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Growth and reproduction are two essential life‐history traits for fungi. Understanding life‐history strategies provides insight into the environmental adaption of species.

Hydroxamic Acids as HDAC Inhibitor Drug Leads for Malaria

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a global health threat, with an estimated 282 million cases and 610,000 malaria‐associated deaths reported in 2024. Most mortality is due to infection by Plasmodium falciparum parasites, with the highest burden occurring in Sub‐Saharan Africa.

The role of true viviparity in Amphibolis antarctica: implications for the genetic diversity in the context of seagrass restoration

open access: yesFrontiers in Conservation Science
Amphibolis antarctica (Labill.) Asch. produces large, well-developed viviparous seedlings, raising a fundamental question: Are these seedlings the result of sexual or asexual reproduction?

Inhibition of asexual reproduction in planaria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1969
Asexual reproduction in the decapitated planaria, Dugesia dorotocephala, is inhibited by an extract of homogenized heads of the same or closely-related species.

Habitat heterogeneity favors asexual reproduction in natural populations of grassthrips [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Explaining the overwhelming success of sex among eukaryotes is difficult given the obvious costs of sex relative to asexuality. Different studies have shown that sex can provide benefits in spatially heterogeneous environments under specific conditions ...

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Reproduction-associated pathways in females of gibel carp (Carassius gibelio) shed light on the molecular mechanisms of the coexistence of asexual and sexual reproduction

open access: yesBMC Genomics
Gibel carp (Carassius gibelio) is a cyprinid fish that originated in eastern Eurasia and is considered as invasive in European freshwater ecosystems. The populations of gibel carp in Europe are mostly composed of asexually reproducing triploid females (i.

Asexual Reproduction in Infectious Diseases

open access: yes, 2009
Parasitic organisms in the strict sense (eukaryotes) represent a significant part of the general biodiversity which has been described and, with 179 species affecting people worldwide, are of relevance for mankind in particular. Contrary to the classical view, many of these species are clonal.

Evolution of Complex Asexual Reproductive Strategies in Jellyfish [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Naturalist, 2018
Many living organisms in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems rely on multiple reproductive strategies to reduce the risk of extinction in variable environments. Examples are provided by the polyp stage of several bloom-forming jellyfish species, which can reproduce asexually using different budding strategies.
