Fixation time for Mother’s Curse compensators. The rate of fixation is shown for a compensator located on an autosome (a; Model 1), X chromosome (b; Model 2), Y chromosome (c; Model 3), or Z chromosome (d; Model 4) for a given female benefit (sf = 0.105; simulations were run for 19 different values evenly spaced between 0.02 and 0.4). Colors show the number of generations (up to 1000) required for a nuclear compensator that restores male fitness to fix. The x-axis is the strength of restoration of the compensator (sa, sx, sy, and sz respectively).
