Dramatically diverse S. pombe wtf meiotic drivers all display high gamete-killing efficiency

María Angélica Bravo Núñez, Ibrahim M. Sabbarini, Michael T. Eickbush…·Sarah E. Zanders

The paper functionally characterizes 22 additional wtf genes in S. pombe, identifying eight new meiotic drivers and three new suppressors, showing high gamete-killing efficiency despite sequence divergence.
