Strong Purifying Selection in Haploid Tissue–Specific Genes of Scots Pine Supports the Masking Theory

The masking theory states that genes expressed in a haploid stage will be under more efficient selection. In contrast, selection will be less efficient in genes expressed in a diploid stage, where the fitness effects of recessive deleterious or beneficial mutations can be hidden from selection in he...
