Reduced X-linked rare polymorphism in males in comparison to females of Drosophila melanogaster.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Takahashi Kazuo H, Tanaka Kentaro, Itoh Masanobu, Takano-Shimizu Toshiyuki

Abstract excerpt

Natural selection is assumed to act more strongly on X-linked loci than on autosomal loci because the fitness effect of a recessive mutation on the X chromosome is fully expressed in hemizygous males. Therefore, selection is expected to fix or remove recessive mutations on the X chromosome more e...
