Genetics of Cryptic Speciation within an Arctic Mustard, Draba nivalis
Crossing experiments indicate that hybrid sterility barriers frequently have developed within diploid, circumpolar plant species of the genus Draba. To gain insight into the rapid evolution of postzygotic reproductive isolation in this system, we augmented the linkage map of one of these species, D. nivalis, and searched for quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with reproductive isolation....
متن کاملAllopatric Speciation within a Cryptic Species Complex of Australasian Octopuses
Despite extensive revisions over recent decades, the taxonomy of benthic octopuses (Family Octopodidae) remains in a considerable flux. Among groups of unresolved status is a species complex of morphologically similar shallow-water octopods from subtropical Australasia, including: Allopatric populations of Octopus tetricus on the eastern and western coasts of Australia, of which the Western Aus...
متن کاملPseudo-cryptic speciation in coccolithophores.
Coccolithophores are a group of calcifying unicellular algae that constitute a major fraction of oceanic primary productivity, play an important role in the global carbon cycle, and are key biostratigraphic marker fossils. Their taxonomy is primarily based on the morphology of the minute calcite plates, or coccoliths, covering the cell. These are diverse and include widespread fine scale variat...
متن کاملGenetics of Speciation
The American Genetics Association (AGA) is a nonprofit membership society whose mission is to promote the study of genetics. To meet this obligation, the AGA publishes the Journal of Heredity and promotes research in all fields of genetics. The latter is accomplished through an annual meeting and symposium, as well as by sponsorship of special events, such as workshops and symposia in areas of ...
متن کاملGenetics and ecological speciation.
Species originate frequently by natural selection. A general mechanism by which this occurs is ecological speciation, defined as the evolution of reproductive isolation between populations as a result of ecologically-based divergent natural selection. The alternative mechanism is mutation-order speciation in which populations fix different mutations as they adapt to similar selection pressures....
