The unusual system of doubly uniparental inheritance of mtDNA : isn't one enough?
TL;DR: This review surveys recent advances in the understanding of DUI, which is a peculiar system of cytoplasmic DNA inheritance that involves distinct maternal and paternal routes of mtDNA transmission, a novel extension of a mitochondrial gene (cox2), recombination, and periodic 'role-reversals' of the normally male and female-transmitted mitochondrial genomes.
