A novel system of fertility rescue in Drosophila hybrids reveals a link between hybrid lethality and female sterility.

Genetics - 1 Jan 2003

Barbash Daniel A, Ashburner Michael

Abstract excerpt

Hybrid daughters of crosses between Drosophila melanogaster females and males from the D. simulans species clade are fully viable at low temperature but have agametic ovaries and are thus sterile. We report here that mutations in the D. melanogaster gene Hybrid male rescue (Hmr), along with unidentified polymorphic factors, rescue this agametic phenotype in both D. melanogaster/D. simulans and D. melanogaster/D....
