A NOVEL SPERM-DELIVERED TOXIN CAUSES LATE-STAGE EMBRYO LETHALITY AND TRANSMISSION RATIO DISTORTION IN C. ELEGANS.

A novel sperm-delivered toxin causes late-stage embryo lethality and transmission ratio distortion in C. elegans.

The evolutionary fate of an allele ordinarily Medical and Ambulatory supplies / Ambulatory Equipment depends on its contribution to host fitness.Occasionally, however, genetic elements arise that are able to gain a transmission advantage while simultaneously imposing a fitness cost on their hosts.We previously discovered one such element in C.elega
