This study investigates how positive selection affects the distribution of genomic admixture tract lengths and shows that selection can increase tract lengths on average but decrease them conditional on allele frequency.

The paper identifies Spok genes as the molecular basis of meiotic drivers in Podospora anserina and shows their role in spore killing and resistance through distinct domains.

The paper identifies rfk-1 as a gene required for spore killing in Neurospora, showing its deletion abolishes Sk-2 spore killing and its insertion disrupts meiosis in non-Sk-2 isolates.
