Centromere-associated meiotic drive and female fitness variation in Mimulus.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 May 2015

Fishman Lila, Kelly John K

Abstract excerpt

Female meiotic drive, in which chromosomal variants preferentially segregate to the egg pole during asymmetric female meiosis, is a theoretically pervasive but still mysterious form of selfish evolution. Like other selfish genetic elements, driving chromosomes may be maintained as balanced polymorphisms by pleiotropic or linked fitness costs. A centromere-associated driver (D) with a ∼58:42 female-specific...
