Apomixis is biological reproduction without fertilization, meiosis or production of gametes. An apomict is an organism which chiefly reproduces this way. Parthenogenesis is an animal form of apomixis. In certain plants this kind of reproduction is called apogamy[?]. Although the evolutionary advantages of sexual reproduction are lost, apomixis does pass along traits fortuitous for individual evolutionary fitness.
