Overview of sexual and asexual reproduction modes. Sexual reproduction includes the fusion of male and female gametes, which can originate from two different individuals (biparental reproduction) or from the same individual (selfing). Asexual reproduction includes mitotic and meiotic parthenogenesis. Consequences for offspring heterozygosity are presented for each mode (for further explanation, see text).
