A prezygotic transmission distorter acting equally in female and male zebra finches Taeniopygia guttata.

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2015

Abstract excerpt

The two parental alleles at a specific locus are usually inherited with equal probability to the offspring. However, at least three processes can lead to an apparent departure from fair segregation: early viability selection, biased gene conversion and various kinds of segregation distortion. Here, we conduct a genome-wide scan for transmission distortion in a captive population of zebra finches (Taeniopygia...
