Thermal induction of diploid gynogenesis
Sporadic diploid gynogenetic fry resulted from fertilization with y-irradiated sperm. Their frequency increased appreciably when thermal shock treatments, beginning during the first hour of development (―0.4 OC lasting 6 hrs 45 min ; 26-30 °C lasting 10 min), were used. When the eggs were fertilized with normal sperm, a good triploidization rate was induced by means of heat shocks (27-30...
متن کاملDiploid gynogenesis in the Mexican axolotl.
Gynogenetic diploid axolotls were produced by activating eggs with ultraviolet-inactivated sperm, and then subjecting the activated eggs to heat shock. Optimal conditions for ultraviolet inactivation of the sperm, and for suppression of the second meiotic division by heat shock, were established. Gynogenetic diploids produced by these procedures included progeny homozygous for recessive alleles...
متن کاملThe Evolutionary Ecology of Gynogenesis
■ Abstract Most metazoans engage in recombination every generation. In theory this is associated with considerable cost, such as the production of males, so that asexual organisms, which do not pay this cost, should be able to invade populations of sexuals. Some asexuals depend on sperm of sexual males to trigger embryogenesis, a reproductive mode called gynogenesis. The genetic information of ...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Ush2a Gene in Medaka Fish (Oryzias latipes)
Patients suffering from Usher syndrome (USH) exhibit sensorineural hearing loss, retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and, in some cases, vestibular dysfunction. USH is the most common genetic disorder affecting hearing and vision and is included in a group of hereditary pathologies associated with defects in ciliary function known as ciliopathies. This syndrome is clinically classified into three types: ...
متن کاملBetanodavirus infection in the freshwater model fish medaka (Oryzias latipes).
Betanodaviruses, the causal agents of viral nervous necrosis in marine fish, have bipartite, positive-sense RNA genomes. As their genomes are the smallest and simplest among viruses, betanodaviruses have been studied in detail as model viruses by using a genetic-engineering system, as has occurred with the insect alphanodaviruses, the other members of the family Nodaviridae. However, studies of...
