Phenotypic Effects of an Allele Causing Obligate Parthenogenesis in a Rotifer
Transitions to obligate asexuality have been documented in almost all metazoan taxa, yet the conditions favoring such transitions remained largely unexplored. We address this problem in the rotifer Brachionus calyciflorus. In this species, a polymorphism at a single locus, op, can result in transiti...
