Parent-of-origin effects, allele-specific expression, genomic imprinting and paternal manipulation in social insects.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 7 Jun 2021

Oldroyd Benjamin P, Yagound Boris

Abstract excerpt

Haplo-diploidy and the relatedness asymmetries it generates mean that social insects are prime candidates for the evolution of genomic imprinting. In single-mating social insect species, some genes may be selected to evolve genomic mechanisms that enhance reproduction by workers when they are inherited from a female. This situation reverses in multiple mating species, where genes inherited from fathers can be...
