Journal Article
Fisher, A. M., White, N., Bonsall, M. B., Price, T. A., & Knell, R. J. (2025). Novel stressors and trait variation determine X-linked meiotic drive frequency. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 292, Article 20250426. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2025.0426

Sex ratio meiotic drive alleles bias their transmission by impairing the viability of non-drive gametes, leading to skewed population sex ratios. Despite theoretical predictions that drive alleles should reach fixation causing population extinction,...
