Testing the chromosomal speciation hypothesis for humans and chimpanzees.

Genome research - 1 May 2004

Zhang Jianzhi, Wang Xiaoxia, Podlaha Ondrej

Abstract excerpt

Fixed differences of chromosomal rearrangements between isolated populations may promote speciation by preventing between-population gene flow upon secondary contact, either because hybrids suffer from lowered fitness or, more likely, because recombination is reduced in rearranged chromosomal regions. This chromosomal speciation hypothesis thus predicts more rapid genetic divergence on rearranged than on colinear...
