Marc Vianey-Liaud, Jacques Dupouy, F Lancastre, H. Nassi

Abstract

When one pigmented Biomphalaria glabrata is mated with 1 to 20 albino snails, the percentage of albino parent producing pigmented offspring decreases while the percentage of parent laying albino offspring increases. If the number of snaisl/group increases, the mean duration of the use of allosperm decreases.
