Unisexual animals are commonly found in some polyploid species complexes, and most of
these species have had a long evolutionary history. However, their method for avoiding …

Asexual reproduction can be triggered by interspecific hybridization, but its emergence is
supposedly rare, relying on exceptional combinations of suitable genomes. To examine how …

The association between polyploidy and reproduction transition, which is an intriguing issue
in evolutionary genetics, can also be exploited as an approach for genetic improvement in …

Wild, asexual, vertebrate hybrids have many characteristics that make them good model
systems for studying how genomes evolve and epigenetic modifications influence animal …

Sexual reproduction is the primary mode of reproduction in eukaryotes, but some organisms
have evolved deviations from classical sex and switched to asexuality. These asexual …

Background An important aspect of studying evolution is to understand how new species are
formed and their uniqueness is maintained. Hybridization can lead to the formation of new …

The numbers of deep-sea fish species and their genetic diversities are poorly understood
because of taxonomic confusion and the lack of robust diagnostic features. However, DNA …

The cellular and molecular mechanisms governing sexual reproduction are conserved
across eukaryotes. Nevertheless, hybridization can disrupt these mechanisms, leading to …

The cellular and molecular mechanisms governing sexual reproduction is highly conserved
across eukaryotes. Nevertheless, hybridization can disrupt such machinery leading to …

The proper delimitation of species plays an important role in taxonomy as well as in studies
related to speciation. However, introgressive hybridization can confuse our ability to …
