2. Morran et al. 2011 tested the Red Queen Hypothesis with an experiment on populations of the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans. Populations of C. elegans include both males and "hermaphrodites" (individuals capable of producing both male and female gametes). Hermaphrodites can reproduce alone (termed selfing i.e., asexual reproduction) or mate with males (termed outcrossing i.e., sexual reproduction). The rate of outcrossing in a population can be used as an index of how much selection is favoring sexual reproduction (outcrossing) over asexual...
