Adineta vaga meiosis

[edit]

Until recently, it was considered that the reproductive mode of bdelloid rotifers is mitotic parthenogenesis.[2] However, recent research with Adineta vaga now supports a meiotic derived oogenesis with an altered meiosis I stage.[2] During this stage homologous chromosomes associate, likely undergo recombinational repair of DNA damage and then separate, but do not segregate into haploid nuclei.[2]
