Thelytokous Diglyphus wani: A more promising biological control agent against agromyzid leafminers than its arrhenotokous counterpart

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
Diglyphus wani (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) is a dominant parasitoid that attacks agromyzid leafminers. Two reproductive types occur in D. wani: arrhenotoky (in which virgin females produce only male offspring; and virgin females mate with males to produce ...

Cytogenetic basis of thelytoky in Apis mellifera capensis [PDF]

open access: yesApidologie, 2017
Haplodiploid insects reproduce both sexually and asexually; haploid males arise from unfertilized eggs, while diploid females arise from fertilized eggs. Some species can also produce female offspring by thelytokous parthenogenesis. For example, queenless workers of the Cape honey bee, Apis mellifera capensis, of South Africa can produce diploid female

Frequent colony orphaning triggers the production of replacement queens via worker thelytoky in a desert-dwelling ant

open access: yes, 2020
Although related, Cataglyphis floricola and Cataglyphis tartessica show very different responses to colony orphaning. In the laboratory, under queenless conditions, C. tartessica workers produced male offspring via arrhenotoky, while C. floricola workers

Thelytokous Reproduction of Onion Thrips, Thrips tabaci Lindeman 1889, Infesting Welsh Onion and Genetic Variation among Their Subpopulations

open access: yesInsects, 2022
Parthenogenesis is not uncommon in thrips. This asexual reproduction produces males (arrhenotokous) or female (thelytokous). Only females are found in the onion thrips (Thrips tabaci Lindeman 1889) infesting Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum) in several ...

Thelytoky in the chalcidoid wasp Thripoctenus javae (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) is not caused by bacterial endosymbionts

open access: yes, 2015
Haplodiploidy is the sex determination mode of all Hymenoptera. Whereas most species reproduce by arrhenotokous parthenogenesis (males develop from unfertilized eggs and females from fertilized eggs), many reproduce by thelytokous parthenogenesis (unfertilized eggs develop into diploid females).

Unexpected monophyletic origin of Ephoron shigae unisexual reproduction strains and their rapid expansion across Japan [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2015
The burrowing polymitarcyid mayfly Ephoron shigae is distributed across Japan, Korea, northeast China and far east Russia. Some populations are bisexual, and others are unisexual, i.e. geographically parthenogenetic throughout Japan.

Table1_Apomixis for no bacteria-induced thelytoky in Diglyphus wani (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae).xlsx

open access: yes, 2023
In Hymenoptera species, the reproductive mode is usually arrhenotoky, where haploid males arise from unfertilized eggs and diploid females from fertilized eggs.

The complete mitochondrial genome of a parthenogenetic ant Monomorium triviale (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
Monomorium is one of the most species-rich yet taxonomically problematic ant genus. An East Asian species, M. triviale Wheeler, W.M., 1906, is reproduced by obligate thelytokous parthenogenesis and performs strict reproductive division of labor.

Soft selection reduces loss of heterozygosity in asexual reproduction

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 36, Issue 9, Page 1313-1327, September 2023., 2023
Competition among offspring promotes the types of asexual reproduction that produce offspring with variation in loss of complementation. Abstract The adaptive value of sexual reproduction is still debated in evolutionary theory. It has been proposed that the advantage of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction is to promote genetic diversity, to ...

The Existence of Deuterotokous Reproduction Mode in the T. tabaci (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) Cryptic Species Complex

open access: yesJournal of Horticultural Research, 2020
The present study aimed to investigate whether adult males could fertilize immature female pupae in the leek (L1) and tobacco-associated (T) Thrips tabaci lineages and to investigate the potential effects of mother to son inbreeding on the appearance of ...
