1. Reproduction in the Hermaphrodite Aeolidiella glauca - A Tale of Two Sexes
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on reproduction in a simultaneous hermaphrodite with internal fertilization; the nudibranch Aeolidiella glauca. Unlike most other nudibranchs, where copulation is the rule, A. glauca was found to transfer sperm via external spermatophores that were attached to the partner's back. LÄS MER
2. Sex Chromosome Evolution in a Hermaphrodite : Genetic and phenotypic relationships between sex roles
Sammanfattning : Sex chromosome evolution in a hermaphrodite ancestor starts with the establishment of a sex-determining region (SDR). Over time, sex-specific genes, and/or sexually antagonistic alleles will become linked to the SDR. LÄS MER
3. Splitting the sexes : The birth and senescence of sex chromosomes
Sammanfattning : The evolution of gonochorism from hermaphroditism can be gradual by increasing investment in one sex role while decreasing in the other, or rapid through the fixation of sex-role sterility mutations, eventually leading to the evolution of sex chromosomes. It is expected that the transition will involve a temporary state of gynodioecy or androdioecy as the mutations are not expected to take place at the same time. LÄS MER
