Discordant population structure inferred from male- and female-type mtDNAs from Macoma balthica, a bivalve species characterized by doubly uniparental inheritance of mitochondria

Abstract: Doubly Uniparental Inheritance (DUI) of mitochondria is a remarkable exception to the Strictly Maternal Inheritance (SMI) in metazoans. In species characterized by DUI --almost exclusively gonochoric bivalve mollusks--, females (F) transmit mitochondria to offspring of both sexes, while males (M) pass on their mitochondria exclusively to their sons. Under DUI, males are heteroplasmic, somatic tissues containing F-transmitted mtDNA and gametic cells containing M-transmitted mtDNAs. The aforementioned transmissi… Show more

“…To detect the potential occurrence of DUI disruption in Macoma balthica rubra , individuals were sampled on both sides of the French hybrid zone that spans between the Finistère and the Cotentin peninsulas (Becquet et al, 2012 ; Le Cam et al, 2022 ). Northeast of this region, we sampled specimens in Somme Bay (Le Crotoy, abbreviated ‘CRO’).…”

“…As for PCR primers, we checked that primers would be compatible with the range of genetic variation within M. balthica rubra . For that, primers were aligned to all the unique haplotypes of cox1m recorded in the distributional range of the focal species, that is from Aytré (France) to Lomma (Sweden; Le Cam et al, 2022 ; Figure S1 ). The region amplified by the LAMP primers ranged from the positions 535 to 747 of the entire cox1 gene (Genbank accession number MH 285592.1).…”
