Genome rearrangements and pervasive meiotic drive cause hybrid infertility in fission yeast.

abstract：:Recently, a small-molecule communication mechanism was discovered in a range of Bacillus-infecting bacteriophages, which these temperate phages use to inform their lysis-lysogeny decision. We present a mathematical model of the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of such viral communication, and show that a communica...
