In the course of evolution, animals have repeatedly shifted from sexual to asexual reproduction. The first evidence of the consequences of parthenogenesis – a type of asexual reproduction – on ...

Vielle-Calzada's quest to develop an asexual seed began a decade ago, when he decided to investigate apomixis, a specific type of asexual reproduction.

The reproduction process is essentially the same in humans, animals and most plants. Both female and male organisms are required to contribute to the phenomenon.

Also called vegetative propagation, asexual reproduction is a great way to get mature plants faster than growing from seed. Plus, it’s fun and easy. Most plants asexually propagate naturally.

Asexual, or vegetative, reproduction in plants is controlled by environmental conditions, but the molecular signaling pathways that control this process are poorly understood. Recent research ...

Two types of virgin births known to snakes are facultative parthenogenesis (FP), when reproduction occurs either sexually or asexually, and obligate pathogenesis, when it is only asexual.

Scientists discover trigger for asexual plant reproduction Tel Aviv University-Freiburg University study may help in high yielding crop plants and modernizing agriculture.

This form of asexual reproduction, known as parthenogenesis, has never been recorded in California condors before, and rarely in any type of bird.

A stingray in Hendersonville is about to give birth through parthenogenesis, according to expert, who says it's impossible for shark to mate with ray.

The genus Ulocladium is thought to be strictly asexual. Mating-type (MAT) loci regulate sexual reproduction in fungi and their study may help to explain the apparent lack of sexual reproduction in ...

Superficially, vegetative reproduction in Nephrolepis and Platycerium appears to involve unusual organs. However, both ferns exhibit leafy bud development from distinct sites of origin, not from ...
