Extensive paternal mtDNA leakage in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2013

Nunes Maria D S, Dolezal Marlies, Schlötterer Christian

Abstract excerpt

Strict maternal inheritance is considered a hallmark of animal mtDNA. Although recent reports suggest that paternal leakage occurs in a broad range of species, it is still considered an exceptionally rare event. To evaluate the impact of paternal leakage on the evolution of mtDNA, it is essential to reliably estimate the frequency of paternal leakage in natural populations. Using allele-specific real-time...
