Novel stressors and trait variation determine X-linked meiotic drive frequency.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 1 Aug 2025

Fisher Adam M, White Nicola, Bonsall Michael B, Price Tom Ar, Knell Robert J

Abstract excerpt

Sex ratio meiotic drive alleles bias their transmission by impairing the viability of non-drive gametes, leading to skewed population sex ratios. Despite theoretical predictions that drive alleles should reach fixation causing population extinction, meiotic drive persists at intermediate frequencies in wild populations, though the reasons for this are unclear. Here, we investigate how novel environmental stress...
