The Genetic Structure of Unisexual Hybrid Populations of Frogs Rana esculenta ñomplex from the Transcarpathian Lowlands

Cytology and Genetics 2003, v 37, number 1, 43–47


The biochemical genetic marking and analysis of the ploidy and sexual structure of the green frog populations from the Transcarpathian lowlands have demonstrated that this region is inhabited by the unisexual populations composed of the allodiploid females only. Their genome includes a small portion of the marsh frog genic diversity. This phenomenon is discussed in relation to the unisexual population reproduction problem. The assumption is proposed that in the Transcarpathian hybrid populations the hybrids are spawned by the parthenogenesis.
