Evidence is summarised to support the hypothesis that genetic characteristics frequently assayed in natural populations, including mutator activity, sterility, male recombination, and distortion of segregation, may often be expressions of the same general event--chromosome breakage in outbred populations.
在自然种群中经常检测到的遗传特征,包括突变活性、不育性、雄性重组以及分离畸变,可能常常是同一普遍事件——远交种群中的染色体断裂——的表现形式。
