The resolution of sexual antagonism by gene duplication.

Genetics - 1 Mar 2011

Connallon Tim, Clark Andrew G

Abstract excerpt

Disruptive selection between males and females can generate sexual antagonism, where alleles improving fitness in one sex reduce fitness in the other. This type of genetic conflict arises because males and females carry nearly identical sets of genes: opposing selection, followed by genetic mixing during reproduction, generates a population genetic "tug-of-war" that constrains adaptation in either sex. Recent...
