Male Mutation Bias Is the Main Force Shaping Chromosomal Substitution Rates in Monotreme Mammals
In many species, spermatogenesis involves more cell divisions than oogenesis, and the male germline, therefore, accumulates more DNA replication errors, a phenomenon known as male mutation bias. The extent of male mutation bias (α) is estimated by comparing substitution rates of the X, Y, and autoso...
