Switches, stability and reversals in the evolutionary history of sexual systems in fish
Fish have a diversity of sexual systems. Pla et al. analyse the transitions in these systems across fish, supporting that simultaneous hermaphroditism cannot evolve directly from separate sexes but requires sequential hermaphroditism as an intermediate step.
