Abstract excerpt

In Mytilus mussels, paternal mitochondrial DNA (M type) from sperm is known to be transmitted to offspring. This phenomenon is called doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI). Under DUI, it has been reported that female mussels generally have only maternal mtDNA (F type). In this study, we examined the mode of mtDNA transmission in Mytilus galloprovincialis using M and F type-specific primer sets. The ratio of M and...
