Description of two three-gendered nematode species in the new genus Auanema (Rhabditina) that are models for reproductive mode evolution. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 The co-existence of males, females and hermaphrodites, a rare mating system known as trioecy, has been considered as an evolutionarily transient state.

Thrips dynamics in Allium crops: Unraveling the role of reproductive mode and weather variables in Thrips tabaci population development. [PDF]
PLoS ONEThrips tabaci is the main thrips species affecting onion and related species. It is a cryptic species complex comprising three phylogenetic groups characterized by different reproductive modes (thelytoky or arrhenotoky) and host plant specialization ...

Modeling the impact of reproductive mode on masting. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2017 AbstractMasting is defined as the intermittent highly variable production of seed in a plant population. According to reproductive modes, that is, sexual and asexual reproduction, masting species can be separated into three groups, that is, (1) species, for example, bamboo, flower only once before they die; (2) species, for example, Fagus, reproduce ...

Reproductive Mode and the Evolution of Genome Size and Structure in Caenorhabditis Nematodes. [PDF]
PLoS Genet, 2015 The self-fertile nematode worms Caenorhabditis elegans, C. briggsae, and C. tropicalis evolved independently from outcrossing male-female ancestors and have genomes 20-40% smaller than closely related outcrossing relatives.

Resource availability as driving factor of the reproductive mode in soil microarthropods (Acari, Oribatida). [PDF]
PLoS One, 2014 The availability of high quality resources is an important factor driving community structure and reproductive mode of animals. Parthenogenetic reproduction prevails when resources are available in excess, whereas sexuality correlates with resource ...

A novel reproductive mode in frogs: a new species of fanged frog with internal fertilization and birth of tadpoles. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2014 We describe a new species of fanged frog (Limnonectes larvaepartus) that is unique among anurans in having both internal fertilization and birth of tadpoles. The new species is endemic to Sulawesi Island, Indonesia.

Discriminating between the effects of founding events and reproductive mode on the genetic structure of Triops populations (Branchiopoda: Notostraca). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Crustaceans that initially colonize a freshwater temporary pond can strongly bias the subsequent genetic composition of the population, causing nearby populations to be genetically distinct.

Mathematics, 2023 We propose an approach for modeling the pattern of the genetic diversity of microsatellite markers in a population with a mixed breeding strategy. Part of the population is reproduced sexually, and part is produced asexually.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Basic information on the reproductive biology of many scleractinian corals species is limited or entirely lacking, particularly from temperate zones, though it is essential for a better understanding of their ecology.
