Sex and the spread of retrotransposon Ty3 in experimental populations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Genetics - 1 Aug 1996

Zeyl C, Bell G, Green D M

Abstract excerpt

Mobile genetic elements may be molecular parasites that reduce the fitness of individuals that bear them by causing predominantly deleterious mutations, but increase in frequency when rare because transposition increases their rates of transmission to the progeny of crosses between infected and uninfected individuals. If this is true, then the initial spread of a mobile element requires sex. We tested this...
