SUMMARY:When males lose their fathers genome: the why and how of a remarka
 ble reproductive system - Laura Ross (University of Edinburgh)

DESCRIPTION:Under standard mendelian inheritance\, individuals receive one
  set of chromosomes from each of their parents\, and transmit one set of c
 hromosomes to each of their offspring\, without bias according to each chr
 omosome's parent of origin. However\, across thousands of animal species\,
  males systematically transmit only those chromosomes that they inherited 
 from their father. I will discuss both how this remarkable type of reprodu
 ction evolved and what epigenetic mechanisms are involved.
