Asexual plant reproduction may seed new approach for agriculture Date: March 9, 2010 Source: Howard Hughes Medical Institute Summary: A scientist has moved a step closer to turning sexually ...

Studies by scientists at the University of California, Santa Barbara show that sexual reproduction wins out, in an evolutionary sense, over asexual reproduction in a major study that included 34 ...

Sexual and asexual reproduction The production of offspring is achieved by two main means of reproduction: sexual (fertilization between two sex cell, one male and one female) and asexual.

To test hypotheses of the relative advantages of sexual and asexual reproduction, the reproductive ecology of Dicranum flagellare is compared to that of Tetraphis pellucida. Both species share a ...

Reproducing via parthenogenesis, an asexual form of reproduction whereby embryos develop without fertilization, the all-female offspring of the crustacean are believed to be essentially identical ...

But maybe—just maybe—we’re wrong. After all, asexual reproduction, which includes cloning and budding, is a far older form of reproduction than sex.

This form of asexual reproduction, known as parthenogenesis, has never been recorded in California condors before, and rarely in any type of bird. “This is truly an amazing discovery,” says ...

Research strongly suggests that the “asexual” label could be capturing too broad a group and that it might be time to get a bit more fine-grained.
