Problems preventing establishment of laboratory colonies of parthenogenetic lizards have been solved. Now, productive colonies of these lizards, which have remarkably little genetic variation, can be readily established and used not only for research on parthenogenesis but also for many kinds of experiments for which reptile systems are desirable. Research colonies can provide valuable specimens while reducing the exploitation of natural populations.
阻碍孤雌生殖蜥蜴建立实验室种群的问题已得到解决。现在，这些遗传变异极少的蜥蜴的高产种群可以很容易地建立起来，不仅可用于孤雌生殖研究，还可用于许多需要爬行类动物系统的各类实验。研究种群可以提供有价值的标本，同时减少对自然种群的利用。
