Alternative to production of polyploid fish, treatment of sperm with radiation prior to fertilization permits the production of gynogenetic offspring. |
At sexual maturation of the dwarf surf clam, all gynogenetic diploids were female, indicating that this species has XX females and XY males determined by Y domination. |
Chromosomal evidence for laboratory synthesis of triploid hybrid between the gynogenetic teleost Poecilia formosa and host species. |
Samples were sequenced on five lanes: two lanes each included the female parent and 47 gynogenetic haploids and three lanes each included 32 gynogenetic diploid progeny. |
Chromosome counting confirmed the restoration of diploidy in gynogenetic fish. |
Thus, the gynogenetic eggs acquire the normal amount of genetic material, but all of it is contributed by the female. |
