Population dynamics of an endogenous meiotic drive system in Aedes aegypti in Trinidad.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene - 1 Jul 2006

Cha Sung-Jae, Chadee Dave D, Severson David W

Abstract excerpt

An endogenous meiotic drive system was previously reported to be segregating in the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) population in Trinidad. The meiotic driver (M(D)) is tightly linked to the male determining locus and selectively targets sensitive responders linked to the female determining allele, causing fragmentation of female gametes. This results in highly male-biased progeny. The...
