Essential and recurrent roles for hairpin RNAs in silencing de novo sex chromosome conflict in Drosophila simulans.
Meiotic drive loci distort the normally equal segregation of alleles, which benefits their own transmission even in the face of severe fitness costs to their host organism. However, relatively little is known about the molecular identity of meiotic drivers, their strategies of action, and mechanisms...
