Why is myxoma no longer effective in controlling rabbit population?

Biology
1 answer:
Margaret [11]3 years ago
6 0

The development of resistance to the disease has taken different courses. In Australia, the virus initially killed rabbits very quickly – about 4 days after infection. This gave little time for the infection to spread. However, a less virulent form of the virus then became prevalent there, which spread more effectively by being less lethal. In Europe, many rabbits are genetically resistant to the original virus that was spread. The survival rate of diseased rabbits has now increased to 35%, while in the 1950s it was near zero.[15]

harina [27]

Answer:

X linked inheritance is one of the mechanisms of the inheritance which is associated with the mutation of the gene present on the X chromosome.

1. X linked trait is always passed from the mother to the sons (females to males)

2. The males (XY) are usually affected by the gene as only one copy of the recessive gene in males can show its effect.

3. Females are the carrier of the disease but they are not affected by the condition.
