Little or no gene flow despite F1 hybrids at two interspecific contact zones.
Hybridization can create the selective force that promotes assortative mating but hybridization can also select for increased hybrid fitness. Gene flow resulting from hybridization can increase genetic diversity but also reduce distinctiveness. Thus the formation of hybrids has important implications for long-term species coexistence. This study compares the interaction between the tree wētā He...
متن کاملSelection against recombinant hybrids maintains reproductive isolation in hybridizing Populus species despite F1 fertility and recurrent gene flow.
Natural hybrid zones have proven to be precious tools for understanding the origin and maintenance of reproductive isolation (RI) and therefore species. Most available genomic studies of hybrid zones using whole- or partial-genome resequencing approaches have focused on comparisons of the parental source populations involved in genome admixture, rather than exploring fine-scale patterns of chro...
متن کاملLittle or No Higgs
Higgsless models offer the possibility of electroweak symmetry breaking without the introduction of any explicit additional Higgs fields in the action within the extra dimensional framework. The various symmetries are broken via the application of appropriately chosen boundary conditions(BC) on the 5D gauge field wavefunctions. The role of the Goldstone bosons is played by the additional scalar...
متن کاملInterspecific Hybrids
The regulation of gene expression is essential for organismal form, function, and fitness. Complex organismal development from zygote to adult requires finely tuned expression of genes in space, time, and abundance. Proper expression of genes is also required for most other aspects of physiology and function. Even minor changes in gene expression have the potential to significantly impact pheno...
متن کاملFitness of early life stages in F1 interspecific hybrids between Dicentrarchus labrax and D. punctatus
Interand intraspecific crossbreeding experiments were conducted to evaluate the aquaculture potential of hybrids in the genus Dicentrarchus, focusing on fertilisation and hatching success. The experimental design consisted of 24 controlled crosses in which individual and pooled fertilisations were made between wild D. labrax individuals (8 dams and 5 sires originating from West Mediterranean an...
