Figure 1. — Life Cycles via the Sexual and the Aposporous-Pseudogamous Reproduction.

Five major genes (boxes with wide black borders) control the sexual (left side) and apomictic (right side) pathway: Apospory prevention dominant alleles in sexuals (Apv) and recessive alleles in apomicts (apv); Apospory initiation dominant alleles in apomicts (Ait) and null or recessive alleles in sexuals (ait); Parthenogenesis prevention dominant alleles in sexuals (Ppv) and recessive alleles in apomicts (ppv); Parthenogenesis initiation dominant alleles in apomicts (Pit) and null or recessive alleles in sexuals (pit); Megaspore development dominant alleles in sexuals (Mdv) and recessive alleles in apomicts (mdv).
