Meiotic drive alters sperm competitive ability in stalk-eyed flies.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Dec 2001

Wilkinson G S, Fry C L

Abstract excerpt

Meiotic drive results when sperm carrying a driving chromosome preferentially survive development. Meiotic drive should therefore influence sperm competition because drive males produce fewer sperm than non-drive males. Whether meiotic drive also influences the competitive ability of sperm after ejaculation is unknown. Here we report the results from reciprocal crosses that are designed for estimating the sperm...
