This project studies the unique sex determination system in Daphnia, focusing on the genetic and environmental factors that influence whether individuals reproduce sexually or asexually. It aims to uncover the genetic basis of this polymorphism and its evolutionary implications.
In Daphnia, parthenogenetic reproduction alternates with sexual reproduction.
Individuals of both sexes that belong to the same parthenogenetic line are genetically identical and their sex is determined by the environment.
However, some lines never produce males, and these non male producing (""NMP"") genotypes can only persist through phases of sexual reproduction if they co-occur with normal (""MP"") genotypes that produce both males and females.
The distinction between MP and NMP is genetical…
