Performance of Arrhenotokous and Thelytokous Thrips tabaci (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) on Onion and Cabbage and Its Implications on Evolution and Pest Management [PDF]
Onion thrips, Thrips tabaci Lindeman (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), is an important pest on onion and cabbage. Two reproductive modes—arrhenotoky and thelytoky—are found in this species and co-occur in the field.

Geographic parthenogenesis in the Australian arid zone: II. Climatic analysis of orthopteroid insects of the genera Warramaba and Sipyloidea [PDF]
The Australian and zone harbours a surprising number of parthenogenetic organisms. including the well known case of the grasshopper Warramaba virgo. Less well known is the case of the stick insects of the Sipyloidea complex, which.

The Evolutionary Genetics of Thelytokous Parthenogenesis in Eusocial Hymenoptera [PDF]
The phenomenon of thelytoky, the asexual production of diploid female offspring, is being increasingly uncovered among the eusocial Hymenoptera. Thelytoky is associated with a number of fascinating and novel reproductive systems.
