What is unisexual reproduction??

Hello,

Unisexual reproduction means reproduction taking place either with male or female gamete. For example  in some plants only one sex cell is present either pistel(carpel) or stamen, so in this case reproduction occur when pollen grains from that unisexual flower transfers to any other unisexual flower with pistels only or any other bisexual flower.

Unisexual reproduction involves one parent either with genital organs  of single sex or the gametes produced are sterile so that there is no production of viable seeds. This is otherwise called as parthenogenesis.
In organisms like honey bees and wasps, males develop by the method of parthenogenesis.Some reptiles also have the capability of reproducing by parthenogenesis.

Hope it helps.

Good Luck!

Hi,

Unisexual reproduction is a distinct form of homothallism that dispenses with the requirement for an opposite mating type. Pathogenic and nonpathogenic fungi previously thought to be asexual are able to undergo robust unisexual reproduction.

In simpler words ,Unisexual reproduction involves one parent either with genital organs  of single sex or the gametes produced are sterile so that there is no production of viable seeds. This is otherwise called as parthenogenesis.

Hello!!

Unisexual reproduction is a distinct form of homothallism that dispenses with the requirement for an opposite mating type. In this type of reproduction only single parent is required so chances of variations are very less so this reproduction is quite uncommon but you can find this type of reproduction in lower organisms.

Thanks
