Fitness effects of a selfish gene (the Mus t complex) are revealed in an ecological context.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2004

Abstract excerpt

In wild house mice, genes linked to the t transmission distortion complex cause meiotic drive by sabotaging wild-type gametes. The t complex is consequently inherited at frequencies higher than 90%. Yet, for unclear reasons, in wild mouse populations this selfish DNA is found at frequencies much lower than expected. Here, we examine selection on the t complex in 10 seminatural populations of wild mice based on...
