Meiotic drive has long been considered as a genetic curiosity. Genomic "footprints" suggest otherwise.

Check out our new review https://t.co/R4jqUsygrl, a cross-taxa synthesis arguing that recurrent drive is a pervasive and underappreciated force in genome evolution.

In new research in #GENETICS, @Jackson_Bladen, Nam, & @Nitin_Phadnis explore the relationship of hybrid sterility and meiotic drive by crossing a USA subspecies of #Drosophila pseudoobscura with a subspecies from Bogota.

I’m happy to spend my inaugural science tweet showcasing our labs’ featured article in the current issue of @GeneticsGSA GENETICS https://t.co/Z4COhx6qcI! @Jackson_Bladen, @flythecooper, and I use some clever genetics and pooled sequencing to expose a previously (1/2)

Preprint🚨on a new mechanism of genetic cheating in meiosis! 🧬We found that a mouse selfish DNA, R2d2, combines the elements of both male and female meiotic drivers! (gamete sabotaging in female meiosis)
