Horizontal DNA transfer mechanisms of bacteria as weapons of intragenomic conflict by Croucher, N, Mostowy, R, Wymant, C, Turner, P, Bentley, S, Fraser, C

“…Much recent research has emphasised the adaptive benefit of acquiring novel DNA, but here we argue instead that intragenomic conflict provides a coherent framework for understanding the evolutionary origins of HDT. …”

A model for genomic imprinting in the social brain: Elders by Úbeda, F, Gardner, A

“…This theory was originally developed in the context of fitness interactions within nuclear families, to understand intragenomic conflict in the embryo and infant, but it has recently been extended to encompass interactions within wider social groups, to understand intragenomic conflict over the social behavior of juveniles and adults. …”

A model for genomic imprinting in the social brain: elders. by Úbeda, F, Gardner, A

“…This theory was originally developed in the context of fitness interactions within nuclear families, to understand intragenomic conflict in the embryo and infant, but it has recently been extended to encompass interactions within wider social groups, to understand intragenomic conflict over the social behavior of juveniles and adults. …”

Complementation, genetic conflict, and the evolution of sex and recombination. by Archetti, M

“…Instead, recombination can be the result of an intragenomic conflict between alleles that induce the initiation of crossing over and alleles that evolve to resist that initiation. …”

Are greenbeards intragenomic outlaws? by Biernaskie, J, West, SA, Gardner, A

“…One issue over which there has been disagreement is whether greenbeards lead to intragenomic conflict. Here, to clarify the "outlaw" status of greenbeards, we develop population genetic models that formally examine selection of greenbeard phenotypes under the control of different loci. …”

Hybridization and genome evolution I: The role of contingency during hybrid speciation by Fabrice EROUKHMANOFF, Richard I. BAILEY, Glenn-Peter SæTRE

“…Only specific combinations of parental genomic contributions may produce viable, intra-fertile hybrid species able to accommodate potential constraints arising from intragenomic conflict. Second, ecological conditions (competition, geography of the contact zones or the initial frequency of both parent species) might favor different outcomes ranging from sympatric coexistence to the formation of hybrid swarms and ultimately hybrid speciation. …”

A model for genomic imprinting in the social brain: adults. by Ubeda, F, Gardner, A

“…Here, we advance the kinship theory by developing an evolutionary model of genomic imprinting in adults, driven by intragenomic conflict over allocation to parental versus communal care. …”

Male’s influence on the primary sex ratio bias in Ryukyu drywood termite by Ayaka Agarie, Yasushi Miyaguni, Koji Sugio, Kazuki Tsuji, Kazuki Tsuji, Kazuya Kobayashi

“…Theoretical studies have suggested that intragenomic conflict over the sex ratio distortion between SGEs and the rest of the genome should lead to the evolution of sex-determining systems. …”

Promiscuous splicing-derived hairpins are dominant substrates of tailing-mediated defense of miRNA biogenesis in mammals by Seungjae Lee, David Jee, Sid Srivastava, Acong Yang, Abhinav Ramidi, Renfu Shang, Diane Bortolamiol-Becet, Sébastien Pfeffer, Shuo Gu, Jiayu Wen, Eric C. Lai

“…Overall, the rampant proliferation of young mammalian mirtrons/ssdRNAs, coupled with an inhibitory molecular defense, comprises a Red Queen’s race of intragenomic conflict.…”
