salamander

A species of hybrid salamanders, all of which are female, have found a genetic formula for success - to mate with many males and use equal parts of each partner's genetic load in their offspring. The research reveals ways in which some animal species - all-female populations of fish, lizards and others - can use their genes to increase their chances of success.
