As I suspected this discussion of apomictic reproduction may get complicated.
Like Sue Zununo, I was a little confused by David Poole's definition and
example. Perhaps there are degrees of apomixis. The most familiar example that
I know involves Hosta venticosa which I believe ONLY produces clones of itself
regardless of what the pollen parent might be.
I offer this only as further information, not as a definitive answer.
