Hibernation shows no apparent effect on germline mutation rates in grizzly bears

2022-03-16

Abstract excerpt

A male mutation bias is observed across vertebrates, and, where data are available, this bias is accompanied by increased per-generation mutation rates with parental age. While continuing mitotic cell division in the male germline post-puberty has been proposed as the major cellular mechanism underlying both patterns, little direct evidence for this role has been found. Understanding the evolution of the per-gener...
