Role-reversal of gender-associated mitochondrial DNA affects mitochondrial function in Mytilus edulis (Bivalvia: Mytilidae).

Journal of experimental zoology. Part B, Molecular and developmental evolution - 15 Mar 2009

Breton Sophie, Stewart Donald T, Blier Pierre U

Abstract excerpt

Mussel species of the genus Mytilus possess an unusual system of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) transmission termed doubly uniparental inheritance. They are characterized by the presence of two highly divergent gender-associated mtDNA genomes (often with>20 and>10% divergences in DNA and amino acid sequences, respectively) that are inherited either maternally (F mtDNA) or paternally (M mtDNA). Females are typically...
