Suppression of Wolbachia-mediated male-killing in the butterfly Hypolimnas bolina involves a single genomic region
BACKGROUND: Sex ratio distorting agents (maternally inherited symbionts and meiotically-driving sex chromosomes) are common in insects. When these agents rise to high frequencies they create strong population sex ratio bias and selection then favours mutations that act to restore the rare sex. Despi...
