Cyclically parthenogenetic organisms experience benefits of both sexual and asexual reproductive modes in a constant environment. Sexual reproduction generates new genotypes and may facilitate the purging of deleterious mutations whereas asexuality has a two-fold advantage and enables maintenance of

Although mutations that are detrimental to the fitness of organisms are expected to be rapidly purged from populations by natural selection, some disease-causing mutations are present at high frequencies in human populations. Several nonexclusive hypotheses have been proposed to account for this app
