Balancing selection maintains sex determining alleles in multiple-locus complementary sex determination.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 May 2017

Weis Jerome J, Ode Paul J, Heimpel George E

Abstract excerpt

Hymenopteran species in which sex is determined through a haplo-diploid mechanism known as complementary sex determination (CSD) are vulnerable to a unique form of inbreeding depression. Diploids heterozygous at one or more CSD loci develop into females but diploids homozygous at all loci develop into diploid males, which are generally sterile or inviable. Species with multiple polymorphic CSD loci (ml-CSD) may...
