Selective transmission of mitochondrial DNA in Drosophila

Recent experimental studies on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) transmission in higher animals and insects are reviewed, with emphasis on the mode of mtDNA transmission. Our recent studies on selective mtDNA transmission in Drosophila are summarized. Various aspects of mitochondrial transmission studies ar...
