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 ...

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 ...

Report: Swellshark Capable of Asexual Reproduction Scientists use 12 microsatellites to watch as one captive female swellshark produces five pups without fertilization from a male.

Scientists Uncover First Known Cases of California Condors Born Through Asexual Reproduction Conservation scientists for the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance made the ...
