Evolution of meiosis genes in sexual vs. asexual Potamopyrgus antipodarum
How asexual reproduction affects genome evolution, and how organisms that are ancestrally sexual alter their reproductive machinery upon becoming asexual are both central unanswered questions in evolutionary biology. While these questions have been addressed to some extent in organisms such as asexu...
