A persistent mitochondrial deletion reduces fitness and sperm performance in heteroplasmic populations of C. elegans
BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations are of increasing interest due to their involvement in aging, disease, fertility, and their role in the evolution of the mitochondrial genome. The presence of reactive oxygen species and the near lack of repair mechanisms cause mtDNA to mutate at a fas...
