A flamboyant behavioral polymorphism is controlled by a lethal supergene.

Chris D Jiggins1.   

Abstract

Two new studies show how highly divergent modes of male reproduction in a wading bird are controlled by alternate alleles at a single locus encompassing a 4.5-Mb inversion in the genome. The locus is an example of a 'supergene' controlling multiple complex phenotypes.
