Particular attention was paid to the accumulation of advantageous or deleterious mutations in an extranuclear genome. Within-generation drift due to multiplicity of genome and non-Mendelian segregation promotes the fixation of advantageous mutations and prevents deleterious mutations from accumulating. We show also that the extent of paternal contribution makes little difference in the rate, but, in contrast, the configuration of the genome and the mode of transmission both makes a large difference. These results are compatible with what is known about extranuclear genomes.}, pages = {257--265}, title = {Evolutionary dynamics of extranuclear genes}, volume = {42}, year = {1983} }
