Meanings
-
(qualifier:reproduction, uncountable) The production of only male offspring.
A male-biased brood free of endosymbiotes was found in the SO population. The way in which this arrhenogeny occurs is as yet unclear.
1994, International Journal on Endocytobiosis and Cell Research, page 222:monogeny — the production of only male (“arrhenogeny”) or female (“thelygeny”) offspring.
2012, Rigomar Rieger, Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, page 335:If monogeny is determined exclusively by a cytoplasmic factor, then it is easy to see that the factor will either die out (if it causes arrhenogeny) or will become fixed and thereby sterilize the population (if it causes thelygeny).
