Property +
Life cycle characterized by a diploid adult stage producing haploid gametes by meiosis, the zygote forming by fusion of a pair of gametes (Lincoln et al., 1998). +
Definition may need revision to capture species where 'adult' is ambiguous, e.g. macroalgae where the term 'dominant life stage' might be more relevant. +
