Meiotic drive is the preferential transmission of a particular allele during sexual reproduction. The phenomenon is observed as spore killing in multiple fungi. In natural populations of Podospora ans

Meiotic silencing by unpaired DNA (MSUD) was discovered in crosses made in the standard Oak Ridge (OR) genetic background of Neurospora crassa. However, MSUD often was decidedly less efficient when th
Meiotic recombination of sex chromosomes is thought to be repressed in organisms with heterogametic sex determination (e.g. mammalian X/Y chromosomes), due to extensive divergence and chromosomal rear
