Population-specific signatures of intra-individual mitochondrial DNA heteroplasmy and their potential evolutionary advantages

Heteroplasmy is the existence of more than one mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variant within a cell. The evolutionary mechanisms of heteroplasmy are not fully understood, despite being a very common phenomenon. Here we combined heteroplasmy measurements using high throughput sequencing on green turtles (...
