Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
Amphipholis squamata is regarded as a cosmopolitan hermaphrodite ophiuroid present in all oceans except the polar areas. Paradoxically, the weak potential of dispersion related to the absence of a larval stage is associated with a very vast distribution area. Before investigating genetic structure, it was necessary to test the hypothesis of selfing. Indeed, in this species the testis and ovary, which open into the same pouch mature simultaneously. We have checked this assumption by means of paternity analyses on brooded individuals using RAPDs. Comparison of genetic fingerprints between brooded individuals and adults shows: (1) a variability between adult individuals, (2) a strong similarity between some incubated young and their carrying progenitor (confirmation of the existence of selfing) and (3) differences between some other brooded young and their carrying progenitor (co-existence of out-crossing). |
