The independent distorting ability of the Enhancer of Segregation Distortion, E(SD), in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Jun 1991

Temin R G

Abstract excerpt

Segregation distortion is a meiotic drive system, discovered in wild populations, in which males heterozygous for an SD chromosome and a sensitive SD+ homolog transmit the SD chromosome almost exclusively. SD represents a complex of three closely linked loci in the centromeric region of chromosome 2: Sd, the Segregation distorter gene; E(SD), the Enhancer of Segregation Distortion, required for full expression of...
