The effects of sex-biased gene expression and X-linkage on rates of adaptive protein sequence evolution in Drosophila

A faster rate of adaptive evolution of X-linked genes compared with autosomal genes may be caused by the fixation of new recessive or partially recessive advantageous mutations (the Faster-X effect). This effect is expected to be largest for mutations that affect only male fitness and absent for mut...
