“…Considering how little is mechanistically known in the model organism D. melanogaster, it is hard to speculate about other less studied species. Inversion heterozygosity suppresses recombination in the limited number of Drosophila species studied thus far (Carson, 1953;Dobzhansky & Epling, 1948;Singh & Singh, 1987), and does so via the same mechanisms, yet the relative strength and importance of these mechanisms is unknown (Krimbas & Powell, 1992b). Given that both recombination maps and crossover interference are known to vary between species, it is reasonable to expect the magnitude and extent of recombination suppression to differ as well (Brand, Cattani, Kingan, Landeen, & Presgraves, 2018;Cáceres, Ranz, Barbadilla, Long, & Ruiz, 1999;True, Mercer, & Laurie, 1996).…”
