Chromosomal speciation: a reply.

Journal of theoretical biology - 21 Sept 2004

Forsdyke Donald R

Abstract excerpt

The "genic" and the "non-genic" (chromosomal) hypotheses for the predominant mechanism by which species diverge into two have long been in contention. In 1998 Coyne and Orr attacked certain formulations of the chromosomal hypothesis on the grounds that they required macromutations (structural changes in chromosomes). In 1999 I replied that numerous independent micromutations (single DNA base changes) should...
