This project investigates deviations from Mendelian inheritance in certain animal species, focusing on the role of sexual conflict in genetic transmission. It aims to understand how these conflicts influence reproductive strategies, particularly in species exhibiting paternal genome elimination.
Under Mendelian inheritance, individuals receive one set of chromosomes from each of their parents, and transmit one set of these chromosomes at random to their offspring.
Yet, in thousands of animals Mendel's laws are broken and the transmission of maternal and paternal alleles lose their symmetry. A large body of theory suggests that these asymmetries might arise because of maternal–paternal genetic conflict, but empirical tests are sorely needed to test whether the plausible is actual.This pr…
