Recent evolution of alternative reproductive modes in the 'living fossil' Triops cancriformis

Table 3 Sex ratio and inferred reproductive mode in European Triops cancriformis. The number (n) of individual males and females/hermaphrodites and the male proportion per pond are given. The results of the Chi-Square test to infer deviations from a null hypothesis of equal sex ratio and the inferred type of reproductive mode are provided (see text). In the populations investigated here, the collection year is indicated under the Reference heading.
