Organelle bottlenecks facilitate evolvability by traversing heteroplasmic fitness valleys
Radzvilavicius, Arunas; Johnston, Iain (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Bioenergetic organelles—mitochondria and plastids—retain their own genomes (mtDNA and ptDNA), and these organelle DNA (oDNA) molecules are vital for eukaryotic life. Like all genomes, oDNA must be able to evolve to suit ... -
Selection for biparental inheritance of mitochondria under hybridization and mitonuclear fitness interactions
Allison, Tom M.; Radzvilavicius, Arunas; Dowling, Damian K. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Uniparental inheritance (UPI) of mitochondria predominates over biparental inheritance (BPI) in most eukaryotes. However, examples of BPI of mitochondria, or paternal leakage, are becoming increasingly prevalent. Most ...
