Meiotic drive changes sperm precedence patterns in house mice: potential for male alternative mating tactics?

BMC evolutionary biology - 21 Jun 2016

Sutter Andreas, Lindholm Anna K

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: With female multiple mating (polyandry), male-male competition extends to after copulation (sperm competition). Males respond to this selective pressure through physiological, morphological and behavioural adaptations. Sperm competitiveness is commonly decreased in heterozygote carriers of male meiotic drivers, selfish genetic elements that manipulate the production of gametes in males. This might...
