agamic

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'no sex? just silver' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'paris mate coming first' is the wordplay.
'paris mate' becomes 'agami' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'coming first' becomes 'c' (ast letter of 'coming').
'agami'+'c'='AGAMIC'

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for agamic that I've seen before include "Reproducing asexually; a magic (anag.)" , "Asexual" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
