THE POTENTIAL OF INVERSIONS TO ACCUMULATE BALANCED SEXUAL ANTAGONISM IS SUPPORTED BY SIMULATIONS AND DROSOPHILA EXPERIMENTS

The potential of inversions to accumulate balanced sexual antagonism is supported by simulations and Drosophila experiments

Chromosomal inversion polymorphisms can be common, but the causes Ringette Ring of their persistence are often unclear.We propose a model for the maintenance of inversion polymorphism, which requires that some variants contribute antagonistically to two phenotypes, one of which has negative frequency-dependent fitness.These conditions yield a form
