Signature of selective sweep associated with the evolution of sex-ratio drive in Drosophila simulans.

Genetics - 1 Mar 2004

Derome Nicolas, Métayer Karine, Montchamp-Moreau Catherine, Veuille Michel

Abstract excerpt

In several Drosophila species, the XY Mendelian ratio is disturbed by X-linked segregation distorters (sex-ratio drive). We used a collection of recombinants between a nondistorting chromosome and a distorting X chromosome originating from the Seychelles to map a candidate sex-ratio region in Drosophila simulans using molecular biallelic markers. Our data were compatible with the presence of a sex-ratio locus in...
