NEW THEORY. “However, uniparental inheritance is evolutionarily unstable, because organelles are subject to Muller’s ratchet. This drives a relaxation of strict maternal inheritance by paternal leakage or regular biparental transmission. Biparental inheritance is again susceptible to the evolution of selfish genomes and, therefore, is repeatedly lost and restored over evolutionary timeframes.”
