General environmental heterogeneity as the explanation of sexuality? Comparative study shows that ancient asexual taxa are associated with both biotically and abiotically homogeneous environments.

However, in cases in which the probability of positive result was set on 1/3 (leaving 2/3 probability of negative or indifferent result, however, see Discussion ), results became marginally significant (six of eight, p = .02; six of eight, p = .02; respectively, five of eight, p = .088).

Nevertheless, even stepping aside from p ‐values, our results show a clear trend of AA association with biotically and abiotically homogeneous environments, both in general and in comparison with their sexual controls.
