Figure 3 

The coevolution of an MI driver and an unlinked recombination enhancer. The frequencies of MI drive alleles (fD, red) and unlinked recombination modifiers (fM, blue) across generations are shown. The correlation between alleles, LD/fDfdfMfm, denoted by the red and blue line, and its value are given on the right axis. Drive is complete and recessive lethal (wDd = 1, wdd = 0). The initial recombination rate is 14, and each copy of M increases the probability of recombining by 0.05. Initial frequencies of drive and recombination modifier alleles equal fD0=0.10 and fM0=0.01, respectively. (A) Drive in both sexes (MI = 1, r = 14, δr = 0.05). (B) Female-limited drive (αMI♀ = 1,δr = 0.05).
