PARALLEL LOSS OF SEX IN FIELD POPULATIONS OF A BROWN ALGA SHEDS LIGHT ON THE MECHANISMS UNDERLYING THE EMERGENCE OF ASEXUALITY

Masakazu Hoshino, Guillaume G. Cossard, Fabian B. Haas…·Susana M. Coelho

The paper investigates the molecular mechanisms of asexual reproduction emergence in brown algae, finding convergent gene expression changes and a key autosomal locus associated with the loss of sex.
