The unprecedented level of diversity recorded among the clones of
self-fertilizing gynogenetic unisexuals and self-fertilizing
simultaneous hermaphrodites challenges current ideas on the
predominant role of recombination in promoting evolution of
biological diversity. Though limited to a few species, the
existence of self-fertilizing and cyclical sex changing
hermaphrodites remains a puzzle to many geneticists and
endocrinologists. Within a few days after the removal of a harem
master or mistress, a successor changes sex and takes over the
harem - the causes for the sex changing mechanism pose many
challenges to socio-ecologists and behaviour specialists. This book
is a synthesis of relevant and recent information on sexuality of
fishes and points towards new directions of desired research.
