Population genetics of sexual conflict in the genomic era.

Nature reviews. Genetics - 1 Dec 2017

Mank Judith E

Abstract excerpt

Sexual conflict occurs when selection acts in opposing directions on males and females. Case studies in both vertebrates and invertebrates indicate that sexual conflict maintains genetic diversity through balancing selection, which might explain why many populations show more genetic variation than expected. Recent population genomic approaches based on different measures of balancing selection have suggested...
