Inferring the history of speciation from multilocus DNA sequence data: the case of Drosophila pseudoobscura and close relatives.
The divergence of Drosophila pseudoobscura from its close relatives, D. persimilis and D. pseudoobscura bogotana, was examined using the pattern of DNA sequence variation in a common set of 50 inbred lines at 11 loci from diverse locations in the genome. Drosophila pseudoobscura and D. persimilis show a marked excess of low-frequency variation across loci, consistent with a model of recent popu...
متن کاملX chromosomes and autosomes evolve at similar rates in Drosophila: no evidence for faster-X protein evolution.
Recent data from Drosophila suggest that a substantial fraction of amino acid substitutions observed between species are beneficial. If these beneficial mutations are on average partially recessive, then the rate of protein evolution is predicted to be faster for X-linked genes compared to autosomal genes (the "faster-X" hypothesis). We test this prediction by comparing rates of protein substit...
متن کاملEvaluation of the genomic extent of effects of fixed inversion differences on intraspecific variation and interspecific gene flow in Drosophila pseudoobscura and D. persimilis.
There is increasing evidence that chromosomal inversions may facilitate the formation or persistence of new species by allowing genetic factors conferring species-specific adaptations or reproductive isolation to be inherited together and by reducing or eliminating introgression. However, the genomic domain of influence of the inverted regions on introgression has not been carefully studied. He...
متن کاملThe genetic basis of reproductive isolation: insights from Drosophila.
Recent studies of the genetics of speciation in Drosophila have focused on two problems: (i) identifying and characterizing the genes that cause reproductive isolation, and (ii) determining the evolutionary forces that drove the divergence of these "speciation genes." Here, I review this work. I conclude that speciation genes correspond to ordinary loci having normal functions within species. T...
متن کاملGenetic Architechture of Male Sterility and Segregation Distortion in Drosophila Pseudoobscura Bogota-usa Hybrids
Running title: Genetics of speciation in Drosophila pseudoobscura. ABSTRACT Understanding the genetic basis of reproductive isolation between recently diverged species is a central problem in evolutionary genetics. Here, I present analyses of the genetic architecture underlying hybrid male sterility and segregation distortion between the Bogota and USA subspecies of D. pseudoobscura. Previously...
