Density, parasitism, and sexual reproduction are strongly correlated in lake Daphnia populations
Abstract Many organisms can reproduce both asexually and sexually. For cyclical parthenogens, periods of asexual reproduction are punctuated by bouts of sexual reproduction, and the shift from asexual to sexual reproduction has large impacts on fitness and population dynamics. We studied populations...
