Intergenomic Arms Races: Detection of a Nuclear Rescue Gene of Male-Killing in a Ladybird
Many species of arthropod are infected by deleterious inherited micro-organisms. Typically these micro-organisms are inherited maternally. Consequently, some, particularly bacteria of the genus Wolbachia, employ a variety of strategies that favour female over male hosts. These strategies include fem...
