When does the female bias arise? Insights from the sex determination cascade of a flea beetle with a strongly skewed sex ratio
Reproduction-manipulating bacteria like Wolbachia can shift sex ratios in insects towards females, but skewed sex ratios may also arise from genetic conflicts. The flea beetle Altica lythri harbors three main mtDNA strains that are coupled to three different Wolbachia infections. Depending on the mt...
