Abstract

A wide range of genetic systems are present in insects like haplo-diploidy, homogametic male and female, hermaphrodites etc. Gynandromorphism i.e., the presence of both sexes in the same body also occurs in insects with increasing complexity. Here, we gave an overview of various genetic systems present in insects and described gynandromorphism in detail.
