Selection against Heteroplasmy Explains the Evolution of Uniparental Inheritance of Mitochondria
Why are mitochondria almost always inherited from one parent during sexual reproduction? Current explanations for this evolutionary mystery include conflict avoidance between the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes, clearing of deleterious mutations, and optimization of mitochondrial-nuclear coadaptat...
