Complex epistasis for Dobzhansky-Muller hybrid incompatibility in solanum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examined the prevalence of interactions between pairs of short chromosomal regions from one species (Solanum habrochaites) co-introgressed into a heterospecific genetic background (Solanum lycopersicum). Of 105 double introgression line (DIL) families generated from a complete diallele combination of 15 chromosomal segments, 39 ( approximately 38%) showed evidence for complex epistasis in the form of genotypic and/or allelic marker transmission distortion in DIL F(2) populations.

Functional Divergence Caused by Ancient Positive Selection of a Drosophila Hybrid Incompatibility Locus
Interspecific hybrid lethality and sterility are a consequence of divergent evolution between species and serve to maintain the discrete identities of species. The evolution of hybrid incompatibilities has been described in widely accepted models by Dobzhansky and Muller where lineage-specific functional divergence is the essential characteristic of hybrid incompatibility genes. Experimentally ...
متن کاملEpistasis among Drosophila persimilis Factors Conferring Hybrid Male Sterility with D. pseudoobscura bogotana
The Bateson-Dobzhansky-Muller model posits that hybrid incompatibilities result from genetic changes that accumulate during population divergence. Indeed, much effort in recent years has been devoted to identifying genes associated with hybrid incompatibilities, often with limited success, suggesting that hybrid sterility and inviability are frequently caused by complex interactions between mul...
متن کاملDobzhansky-Muller and Wolbachia-Induced Incompatibilities in a Diploid Genetic System
Genetic incompatibilities are supposed to play an important role in speciation. A general (theoretical) problem is to explain the persistence of genetic diversity after secondary contact. Previous theoretical work has pointed out that Dobzhansky-Muller incompatibilities (DMI) are not stable in the face of migration unless local selection acts on the alleles involved in incompatibility. With loc...
متن کاملTwo Dobzhansky-Muller genes interact to cause hybrid lethality in Drosophila.
The Dobzhansky-Muller model proposes that hybrid incompatibilities are caused by the interaction between genes that have functionally diverged in the respective hybridizing species. Here, we show that Lethal hybrid rescue (Lhr) has functionally diverged in Drosophila simulans and interacts with Hybrid male rescue (Hmr), which has functionally diverged in D. melanogaster, to cause lethality in F...
متن کاملContributions of heterosis and epistasis to hybrid fitness.
Early-generation hybrid fitness is difficult to interpret because heterosis can obscure the effects of hybrid breakdown. We used controlled reciprocal crosses and common garden experiments to distinguish between effects of heterosis and nuclear and cytonuclear epistasis among morphotypes and advanced-generation hybrid derivative populations in the Piriqueta caroliniana (Turneraceae) plant compl...
