Meiosis genes in Daphnia pulexand the role of parthenogenesis in genome evolution

Background: Thousands of parthenogenetic animal species have been described and cytogenetic manifestations of this reproductive mode are well known. However, little is understood about the molecular determinants of parthenogenesis. The Daphnia pulex genome must contain the molecular machinery for di...
