Genomic architecture and evolutionary antagonism drive allelic expression bias in the social supergene of red fire ants

Supergene regions maintain alleles of multiple genes in tight linkage through suppressed recombination. Despite their importance in determining complex phenotypes, our empirical understanding of early supergene evolution is limited. Here we focus on the young ‘social’ supergene of fire ants, a power...
