Mitochondrial inheritance and germ line determination in a bivalve species with Doubly Uniparental Inheritance (DUI)
Mitochondria are inherited maternally in most metazoans. However, in some bivalves, two mitochondrial lineages are present: one transmitted through eggs (F), the other through sperm (M). This is called Doubly Uniparental Inheritance (DUI). During male embryo development, spermatozoon mitochondria ag...
