Reproduction in animals varies from species to species. Some types of reproduction, like parthenogenesis, are more unusual than others. This reproductive method requires only one individual rather ...

Plant reproduction is highly complex and variable across the kingdom. The emergence of sexual reproduction has contributed to increase plant genetic diversity and enabled the colonisation of new ...

(CNN) -- Two captive female California condors each produced a chick asexually years ago -- the only such instances ever recorded for that endangered species, researchers reported Thursday. And while ...

Life found a way. Two captive California condors were born from unfertilized eggs, suggesting the critically endangered species is able to reproduce asexually, according to a new study. The discovery ...

If you've ever had a spiny leaf insect as a pet, or you're considering getting one, hopefully someone has warned you about this: if you put one in your enclosure, you might come back some time later ...

A team led by biologists at The University of Texas at Arlington has published a study supporting the theory that species that reproduce asexually have more harmful genetic mutations than those ...

Usually, when somebody thinks of birds falling in love they think of just that—two birds; plural. But it turns out the California Condor, in ultra-rare instances, can fall in love with itself. Or at ...

Scientists declared 22 animals extinct, including 11 birds. But there is hope for the critically endangered California condor. The bird is not extinct but getting ...

He’s got his mother’s eyes, and his father’s … nothing. A scientific team led by the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance announced Thursday that California condors can reproduce without having sex.

Two captive female California condors each produced a chick asexually years ago – the only such instances ever recorded for that endangered species, researchers reported Thursday. And while this has ...

Stick insects that reproduce asexually cannot adapt as quickly in the course of evolution as sexually reproducing species, leading to a decrease in biological diversity, according to new research. An ...
