Coadaptation and conflict, misconception and muddle, in the evolution of genomic imprinting.

Heredity - 1 Aug 2014

Haig D

Abstract excerpt

Common misconceptions of the 'parental conflict' theory of genomic imprinting are addressed. Contrary to widespread belief, the theory defines conditions for cooperation as well as conflict in mother-offspring relations. Moreover, conflict between genes of maternal and paternal origin is not the same as conflict between mothers and fathers. In theory, imprinting can evolve either because genes of maternal and...
