dc.description.abstract | Background: A number of recent studies have shown that the pattern of
mitochondrial DNA variation and evolution is at odds with a neutral
equilibrium model. Theory has suggested that selection on mitonuclear
genotypes can act to maintain stable mitonuclear polymorphism within
populations. However, this effect largely relies upon selection being
either sex-specific or frequency dependent. Here, we use mitonuclear
introgression lines to assess differences in a series of key
life-history traits (egg-to-adult developmental time, viability,
offspring sex-ratio, adult longevity and resistance to desiccation) in
Drosophila subobscura fruit flies carrying one of three different
sympatric mtDNA haplotypes.
Results: We found functional differences between these sympatric mtDNA
haplotypes, but these effects were contingent upon the nuclear genome
with which they were co-expressed. Further, we demonstrate a significant
mitonuclear genetic effect on adult sex ratio, as well as a sex x mtDNA
x nuDNA interaction for adult longevity.
Conclusions: The observed effects suggest that sex specific mitonuclear
selection contributes to the maintenance of mtDNA polymorphism and to
mitonuclear linkage disequilibrium in this model system. | en |
