Rapid segregation of heteroplasmic bovine mitodiondria

Abstract

By following the transmission of a heteroplasmic mitochondrial DNA mutation through four generations of Holstein cows, we have documented that substantial shifts in the levels of heteroplasmy can occur between single mammalian generations, that neutral mitochondrial genotypes can segregate in different directions in offspring of the same female, and that a return to homoplasmy may occur in only two or three generations. This apparently rapid rate of mitochondrial DNA segregation in mammals contrasts to the much slower rates observed previously in insects and suggest fundamental differences between taxa regarding the mechanisms of mitochondrial gene transmission.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
