Unisexuality and molecular drive: bag320 sequence diversity in bacillus taxa (insecta phasmatodea).

Satellite DNA variability follows a pattern of concerted evolution through homogenization of new variants by genomic turnover mechanisms and variant fixation by chromosome redistribution into new combinations with the sexual process. Bacillus taxa share the same Bag320 satellite family and their reproduction ranges from strict bisexuality (B. grandii) to automictic (B.
