Does kin recognition and sib-mating avoidance limit the risk of genetic incompatibility in a parasitic wasp?

PloS one - 19 Oct 2010

Metzger Marie, Bernstein Carlos, Hoffmeister Thomas S, Desouhant Emmanuel

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: When some combinations of maternal and paternal alleles have a detrimental effect on offspring fitness, females should be able to choose mates on the basis of their genetic compatibility. In numerous Hymenoptera, the sex of an individual depends of the allelic combination at a specific locus (single-locus Complementary Sex Determination), and in most of these species individuals that are homozygous at...
