Transitions between male and female heterogamety caused by sex-antagonistic selection.

Genetics - 1 Oct 2010

van Doorn G Sander, Kirkpatrick Mark

Abstract excerpt

Many animal taxa show frequent and rapid transitions between male heterogamety (XY) and female heterogamety (ZW). We develop a model showing how these transitions can be driven by sex-antagonistic selection. Sex-antagonistic selection acting on loci linked to a new sex-determination mutation can cause it to invade, but when acting on loci linked to the ancestral sex-determination gene will inhibit an invasion....
