摘要
性比失调因子是一类自私的遗传因子 ,在多种昆虫种类中广泛存在。本文综述了性比失调因子导致宿主昆虫性比失调的多种作用机理 ,以及与性比失调因子相关的昆虫性别决定机制的进化。
Sex ratio distorters (SRD) that alter sex determination and the sex ratio of their hosts have been recorded from a diverse range of insect species.The SRD can be considered to be selfish genetic elements because they manipulate their host reproduction to promote their own spread.In this paper the various mechanisms of SRD\|induced sex rato distortion and the evolution of the related insect sex determination systems are reviewed.
