because in these plants pollen grains from an individual flower cannot fertilize its own ovules as these pollen-grains fail to germinate on stigma of the same flower. Self- sterility in plants is under genetic control which prevents the ovules being fertilized by pollen from the same plant. ...

There are many cryptic or pseudo-cryptic species in plants and animals as well as micro-organisms including phytoplankton s pecies7–11. Among many species concepts, an application of the biological species concept can be used to clarify species delineation in heterothallic species, as mating ...

Parthenogenesis is a natural form of asexual reproduction in which embryos develop in the absence of fertilisation. Most commonly found in plants and invertebrate organisms, an increasing number of vertebrate species have recently been reported employing this reproductive strategy. Here we use DNA genotyp...

Animals exhibit an extraordinary diversity of life history strategies. These realized combinations of survival, development and reproduction are predicted to be constrained by physiological limitations and by trade-offs in resource allocation. However, o
